BACK TO THE FUTURE DVD BOXED SET

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Liam O Brien, 5 out of 5 “Are you trying to tell me my mom has the hot’ s for me?”
THE FILMS: Stop and think for a moment about the nature of time. Think about the past present and future, think about the seconds going by as you [...]



BACK TO THE FUTURE TRILOGY

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 4.5 out of 5
Well, you pays your money, you makes your choice? You can wait until December for the Region 2 Boxset of Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale’s epic time travel trilogy or you can track down the Region 4 (Region 2 compatible too, according to the packaging) boxset at a [...]



DIE ANOTHER DAY

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 3.5 out of 5
It’s beginning to look as if I’m not that much of a James Bond film after all. I got bored and frustrated with Roger Moore’s one-eyebrow performances, Timothy Dalton passed me by (you too?) and Brosnan’s first effort, GOLDENEYE, underwhelmed. However TOMORROW NEVER DIES kicked [...]



BLOOD ON SATAN? CLAW

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 3.5 out of 5 This moderately-entertaining horror film hails from the early 1970s, when UK horror was still very much the domain of the bods at Hammer and Chris Lee? Dracula was camping it up in increasingly-silly romps and Peter Cushing was still [...]



BLADE 2

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 3 out of 5
Stephen Norrington’s original BLADE movie, starring Wesley Snipes as the leather-clad, mean’n-moody half-undead hi-tech vampire slayer, was one of the great high-octane, adrenaline-fuelled action movies of the late 1990s. There were high hopes for Guillermo Del Toro’s sequel. What a disappointment. It’s not that it’s [...]



BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: THE MINI-SERIES

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 4 out of 5 Forget everything you know about BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. This is easy for me because I know very little about it – apart from the universal truths that it was a cheesy late 1970s STAR WARS rip-off which ran for one [...]



ANGEL SEASON 3 BOXSET

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 4.5 out of 5 ANGEL. To many it’s just BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER’s impudent offspring, the show which stands forever in the shadow of its bigger, spikier sister. To others it’s a dark, grim tale of the quest for redemption, a story much darker and visceral [...]



THE X FILES SEASON 7

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Paul Mount, 4 out of 5
Seven seasons seems to be about the point at which most American SF/Fantasy shows reach their sell-by date. The majority of them bow out gracefully when their makers realise they’ve done their best work and that it’s probably a good idea to leave ‘em wanting more. Season [...]

VAMPIRE PRINCESS

By admin • Nov 30th, 1999 • Category: Reviews

Review By Dom Conlon, 2.5 out of 5
Don’t be fooled by its ’12′ rating, Vampire Princess is hardly the type of animated series to keep the kids quiet. It’s subject matter and depiction are all remarkably dark and brooding and even the action has a resigned air of [...]
