Comment by Dr. Loomis – Cinema Releases August 4 2017
I’m not keen on the UK’s film offerings this week in fact it’s the US that has the most interesting release with the Stephen King based movie The Dark Tower. However we in the UK will have to wait a little longer to see it with its release date set for 18th August 2017.
