  • Contamination (1980) dir. Luigi Cozzi (aka Lewis Coates). Blu-ray. Italian sci-fi/horror that for some reason was caught up in the video nasty debacle of the early-mid 80s. It is now available as a 15 cert un-cut! How times change. An okay film, be…
  • The Tommyknockers by Stephen King. This books is one of King's lesser books, written when he was out of his head on booze and drugs and as such gets a lot of hate. Can't remember much about it, but think I enjoyed it at the time. Apparently it is on…

  • My favourite Bond film - yet to be surpassed - and probably favourite Bond book. Have just finished reading the Folio Society's edition which is an excellent one for book collectors. Would love a £5 note for every time I've read this book!

  • Misery - Stephen King. Great book, great film…and if Bachman hadn't been outed as Stephen King with the publication of Thinner, this would have been a Bachman book and the one that might have seen him on the best-seller list!

  • I always have a least one book on the go, usually a novel. But also other books that I read a bit of now and again (usually non-fiction). I am doing a Stephen King reread this year but not to the exclusion of other books…in fact I am currently read …

  • Hellraiser (1987) dir. Clive Barker. Arrow Video - blu-ray. Well that was a blast from the past! Not seen that since the days of VHS, nice to see in proper aspect ratio and in HD quality. Disc is also loaded with lots of good extras, so look forward…

  • @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, haven't seen the de Palma doc, but would love too. I don't do any subscription TV so I guess I'll have to see it on standard TV sometime.
