Permanent Plastic Helmet is a UK-based online zine which takes a discursive, humorous and informed look at film and film culture.
Expect regular features, reviews and opinions on the films, genres and characters we are passionate about, as well as catty swipes at the ones we’re not. We don’t claim to be exhaustive, and we won’t cover everything that comes out.
Our subject matter will alternate from the sublime to the ridiculous; we’re egalitarian like that, and we know that for every Godfather Part II there is a Jack just waiting to spoil the party.
We aim to be witty, informative, accessible and most importantly, fun to read.

Permanent Plastic Helmet was born in January 2010, the spoiled child of writer, arts administrator and pop culture enthusiast Ashley Clark. It has been fed on a diet of good films, bad films, 80s music videos and Rusks along the way until developing a voice of its own. It has recently acquired a second parent in the form of suave Francophone journalist (Sight and Sound, Guardian) Guillaume Gendron. It now wants to become a man. Watch it grow.
