The Intro

Hello!

Welcome to ScreenHound, a project started by Sam and Tash. We are a pair of uni students living in Brighton (UK) who spend way too much time glued to the TV, and are looking to turn our habit into something a bit more productive.

This is where we'll mostly ramble on about new releases, old favourites, and the shockingly bad. We also love lists, so expect a few of those; whether it be the scariest films of the 21st century, or the 10 best movies to watch whilst hungover.

Here's a little bit about us to get this started:

Sometimes we agree, sometimes we disagree (this introduction has taken over 2 hours)... so expect plenty of mixed reviews. We'd love to hear who you agree with more in the comments to help settle our debates.
