I finished The Dark Side British Horror Film book last night.

The problem the book has is the fact it has several authors and there's a lot of overlap. I think i read about Witchfinder General and The Wicker Man twice - once in the chapter on AIP and again in the chapter on Tigon.

The individual sections on Tyburn, Tigon and Pete Walker were informative.

Overall i did enjoy it and will probably get the Amicus book soon, unless they announce a new book for release this November.

Picked up a pb entitled The Critics Were Wrong. Alphabetical trawl through some rotten reviews for "classics". Some are pitifully funny.

Looking forward to getting stuck into this. Having a quick glance through, there are a number of films that would make ideal BFI Flipside releases.

Yeah, that's where i was looking. Waterstones have it at full price plus postage so sadly there's no competition there.

It really does sound like something i'd like.
