Having started the New Year with Casino Royal, I have now finished all the Fleming Bonds, and am now into some continuation novels (no Gardner or Benson [though I do have Benson’s Pocket Guide for Jethro Tull]), now onto John Pearson’s James Bond: T…

The Dark Half by Stephen King. First read this back in 1990 (year of paperback release), and didn’t really like it then. Found it too nasty! But have to say really enjoying it this time and it’s gone up in my ranking. Not top tier King but still bet…

I have to agree with you there. Coppola’s contribution tightened up the narrative, put the emphasis on family: and food, Puzo mentions it, but Coppola weaves into the fabric off the film. You could say the book is rather pulpy (though it is better …

The Godfather by Mario Puzo. Have had this in my To Be Read Box for a while now. Bought in WHSmith bargain bucket for £1 just because I love the movie. Hadn’t picked it up till now because I remember getting Puzo’s The Sicilian when it first came …

The Godfather: Part Two (1974) dir. Francis Ford Coppola . The movie that proved that sequels could be as good as the original. I still prefer the first, but really these two movies go together so well it’s hard to imagine one without the other. Re…

Having finished Tomb Raider (2013) recently, I dived straight into Rise of The Tomb Raider, and am really enjoying it. Though I'd have to say they don't really feel like Tomb Raider games. And RoTTR looks fantastic on the PS4 (glad I finally took th…

Halloween (2018) a film that is a straight sequel to John Carpenter’s original. A few nice touches like using the same font for the credits and of course Carpenter’s iconic theme, updated for a modern, big-budget (well bigger than the original). I …

What place is this?! The Comedy of Terrors (1963) dir. Jacques Tourneur, written by Richard Matheson. Arrow Video dual format. Not seen this before and really enjoyed this old-fashioned black comedy with horror stars Peter Lorre, Vincent Price, B…

Well, I'm going to watch …and then make up my mind. And I reckon it is still going to be better than 90% of the shite that is on the tellybox these days..

Blood and Black Lace (1964) dir. Mario Bava. Arrow Video dual format. One of the earliest giallo films, filmed in Bava's typical stylised way. Lots of primary colours and coloured lights. And it looks smashing in Arrow's 2k restoration.

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and now about half-way thru Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. Can’t believe I’ve missed out on these games for so long! Have just bought a PS4 and . . . Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End (also Sniper …

Recently started on the Uncharted series. Finished Drake’s Fortune, near the end of Among Thieves and have Drake’s Deception waiting in the wings! Also just recently bought a PS4, and A Thief’s End, should keep me busy for a while.

Inferno (2016) dir. Ron Howard. This is the book that made me give up on Dan Brown. A race-against-time thriller that became more annoying as it went on, where nobody is who or what they seem which I found very tedious. Competently directed by Rich…
-
The Foreigner (2017) dir. Martin Campbell. Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan face off in a tense thriller. Well worth a watch.
-
Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King and Owen King. Been on my TBR pile for a while (not as long as some!), about quarter of the way thru so far and really quite enjoying it.
