Merry Xmas 2009

Well, it's almost time to curl up in front of a roaring fire and prepare for the film/booze/food-fest that is Christmas!

Personally I'm looking forward to watching Pete's Dragon and the Wizard Of Oz (or listen to the Wozard!) yet again.
I am also hoping someone (are you listening BFI?) re-releases 'Can Heironymous Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness?' by and starring the wonderful Anthony Newly alongside his then wife Joan Collins...a lost gem...

So wrap up warm,strap on the snow boots, take a deep breath and tuck in!


Merry Christmas to one and all!

A little Halloween treat, The Mummy.

I must say that Universal's 1932 production of 'The Mummy' featuring Boris Karloff is one of my very favourite Universal horror's...well it's a toss up between that and 'The Invisible Man'. Don't know how many times I've watched them or how many times I will watch them but never a moment wasted spent in their magnificent company!

So this is my little homage to The Mummy,Karloff and all things horror. So for Halloween, get wrapped up and have a good one!

BUG 04

BUG 04, Thursday 29th November 2007, 8:45pm, BFI Southbank

BUG sets out to explore the range of creativity, and the new democracy, in music video today - from exciting work in mainstream videos, to off-beam DIY experimentation by 'bedroom' directors made possible by off-the-shelf technology.
