New volume of basement lo-fi by unreconstructed rocker in folk clothing

Typically idiosyncratic but highly welcome return

Polly Harvey and Nick Cave help create her most potent album since Broken English

South Korean supernatural mystery

Enjoy the guilty pleasure of witnessing a hugely successful rock band tear itself apart

Not the definitive doc currently in legal limbo, but an atmospherically filmed record of the Detroit punk pioneers' Levi's-sponsored comeback at London's 100 Club last year. Of the stand-ins for late brothers Rob Tyner and Fred "Sonic"Smith, Lemmy stars, but the celebratory thunder of the surviving trio moves most.

Highly entertaining Stephen King adaptation, stylishly directed by David Koepp, with a mesmerising Johnny Depp as a best-selling mystery writer in the throes of a messy divorce who's accused of plagiarism—and threatened with unpleasant retribution—by sinister hillbilly John Turturro. Cue havoc on all fronts, and bodies piling up very quickly indeed. Splendid.
