I agree. Watched and really enjoyed it.

Now awaiting the arrival of the complete World At War Boxed set (Amazon are selling it at around half the original price - £40). Can't wait.

Helen brought home a copy of Poltergeist yesterday. A classic for less than a fiver!

Cool,i got that too. Also walking with beasts. They did one set in the prehistoric seas too,can't remember the name tho.

I also got the BFI DVD of The Innocents. I had the barebones Fox DVD before but this one had some bonuses I really wanted to have. Jack Clayton's short film adaptation of Nikolai Gogol's The Overcoat was in itself worth the price of admission.

Just got (and watched) a documentary - Jonestown: The Life and Death of the Peoples Temple. I don't think there's anything that scares me more than a megalomaniac.

Also recently received The Man Who Laughs. Been meaning to get this for a while and looking forward to finding some time to watch it.

Hadn't been keeping up with this thread lately. Now I'm going to have to try to track down a copy of The Innocents -- lovely film, beautiful performances... one of the classic ghostly tales of the cinema... and an adaptation of Gogol's "The Overcoat"? How can I not???

Ah no, I'd been ordering these from Feb onwards but had them delivered to a relative in the US, and he made the India trip only now.

Really enjoying Peep Show at the moment, so on one of those spur buying bouts I have on Amazon (that website will be the bankruptcy (isn't bankruptcy a random word to spell?) of me) I bought the box set of series one to four. Woot.
