2010 is the best year ever!




Okay so like, 2010 is the best year ever!
For Films that is, we've had it all, Shutter Island, Shutter Island, Kick-Ass, A Serious Man.... The list goes on, but the best part of this year is the return of Auteur-Extrodinaire Roberto Rodriguez!!!!!!
Seriously Machete just might be the greatest film ever, no bullshit!
It's hitting our shores on the 8th of October and promises to rinse your tits clean with over-blown violence, canny dialogue and special effects that would make Jennifer Aniston look female.

Don't say i didn't warn you!

Future Heroes



After bringing you some of the World’s finest Trance & Progressive Artists over the past 2 Years, with more to come both this year and next, HALO HQ is taking an opportunity to give back to the Cape Town Trance & Progressive Family, with our first, of what we hope will become a regular date on our Calendar, HALO ‘FUTURE HEROES’. And they’re doing it with a little help from the boys and girls from “The will to thrill”!

Film Society is teaming up with HALO to bring you an epic night jam-packed with awesome music, mind-blowing visuals and gyrating sweaty bodies losing it to some smacktastic trance and progressive house!

What the cool kids are saying…

We will once again be kitting out the entire arena in true HALO fashion, with Mungus Fungus (the same Crew that did Cosmic Gate), in control of the venue Décor, coupled with our new joint venture with the UCT Film Society, ‘Now With Extra Steroids’, who will be filming the entire event. We will also be preparing some cool visuals and gimmicks for added entrainment and interaction value.

Oh and we’re giving away 10 tickets to the first 10 people who show us they have the will to thrill!

Greed is good!





I don't know how many of you are old enough to remember a man named Gordon Gekko...
Gekko was the epitome of masculinity, violence and domination the man was a beast, not a monster, a beautiful beat which ravaged through the streets of Wall Street leaving no prisoners behind and not a cent counted.
Oliver Stone directed a masterpiece which firmly ingrained it in my mind that it was okay to nick that 5 cents coin from my mother's purse, because i was going to invest it....

Catch Gekko back in action in "Wall street 2" this Friday and be reminded of why, "Greed is good"
