FRIDAY THE 13TH!
Is, er, not on TV tonight, it seems.
Missed opportunity, lads.
Here’s the best of the rest on the box on this Friday 13 September…
Gremlins – TCM – 6.50pm
Don’t feed after midnight.
Full Metal Jacket – TCM – 9pm
In which war is hell.
Die Another Day – ITV4 – 9pm
Easily the most bizarre James Bond movie in the entire canon.
Elysium – SyFy – 9pm
A mechanised Matt Damon takes the fight to the uber-rich – including Jodie Foster with a strange performance – in Neil Blomkamp’s uneven sci-fi parable.
The Wolverine – E4 – 9pm
The precursor to the excellent Logan finds Wolverine in Japan, battling bad guys.
Chappie – RTÉ 2 – 10.30pm
Neil Blomkamp again, staying within the realms of futuristic dystopia in this tale about an oppressed highly-intelligent robot reprogrammed to do good.
If you like it when Hugh Jackman chews the scenery, this one is for you.

Ryan Gosling lets his actions do the talking over a killer soundtrack in this violent, neon-coated cult hit.
