Epic Christian thriller. Robot sci-fi action. Ancient monster showdown. Those are the brief summaries of previous films by The Asylum reviewed on the Three Rs. The latest one - Sex Pot in 3-DDD - can briefly be summarised as: comedy meets porn.

SONISPHERE KNEBWORTH is so close you can count down the days with your fingers (if you still have them all), but that hasn’t stopped the organisers from throwing a few more treats into the mix. The first question on most SONISPHERE ticket holders minds is - WILL ANTHRAX PULL OUT?!
