Its a Michael Winner film, need i say any more.?

Yup, Bee Girls is great exploitative fun.

Legend of the Witches is more a documentary, but it has a section in the book Ten Years of Terror so i included it here. Highly recommended and very informative, the voice over is quite hypnotic.

Thanks for the recommendations and the additional info, Dem. I'll definitely be checking these out at some point.

I got 9/10, which means I'm a grammar guru.

I got 9/10 too. It was 'gerund' that threw me and I got that one wrong.

Hopefully you'll enjoy Lemora, Dem. Echoing Demoncrat, the Synapse disc is very decent.

Deathdream is also known as Dead of Night - it's recently been released by Nucleus as a double feature with Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things (which was number 101 on my list! )

Yep, that's the one. I don't think it's received a DVD release, as far as I am aware...

God how i hate Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things. Thats why i never bothered with the BU disc of Death Dream.

I really need to see Picnic at Hanging Rock in full. I part saw it many years ago.

It's certainly a 'Marmite' kind of film. Alan Ormsby is a complete cock in it, which puts a lot of people off, but for me it's all part of the overall 'charm'

It's probably the least horror-esque film on my list, and I was debating whether to include it at first. Stunning all the same, though.

I take it the 3 disc release from Second Sight is the one to go for on dvd?

I own the Second Sight Blu-ray, and it's a fantastic release. I can't see its DVD counterpart being any less worthwhile a purchase.
