Armando Iannucci has done it again! After magnificently lampooning the British political system in the outstanding The Thick Of It, and brilliantly parodying the American political system in the superb Veep, the Scottish satirist has travelled back to the 1950s to gloriously caricature the Soviet Union’s political landscape in the magnificent The Death Of Stalin.

The much talked-about movie is inspired by Fabien Nury and Theirry Robin’s graphic novel of the same title and revolves around the struggle for power in the days after the death of Premier of the Soviet Union, Joseph Stalin. It stars an eclectic cast of acting greats including Steve Buscemi (Reservoir Dogs), Andrea Riseborough (National Treasure) and Michael Palin (national treasure). And it arrives in the Virgin Media Store on Monday 19 February.

4. Selfie From Hell

Three years ago, Erdal Ceylan made people around the world jump when his 101-second horror movie Selfie From Hell went viral. Now, the director has turned the short in to an equally fear-inducing full-length feature film. The action begins when a German vlogger dies from a suspicious illness and accelerates when her cousin finds a vlog entry that leads her to investigate the dark net. It then reaches full speed when the terror comes out of her computer and into her home. It’s not for the faint-hearted, but it will please fans of the original clip.

5. Brimstone

Guy Pearce (Memento), Dakota Fanning (War Of The Worlds) and Kit Harington (Game Of Thrones) lead an all-star cast in this ambitious Western about a mute midwife and a vengeful minister. Director Martin Koolhoven cleverly tells this tale of fear and retribution by splitting the action into four chapters, each of which takes place at a different point in the life of Liz Brundy (Fanning). It’s fair to say Liz hasn’t had an easy existence, but the twists, turns, hardships and horrors that have made her a true survivor keep you on the edge of your seat right to the end.
