I think you'll like Gormenghast. It's the quintessential Gothic story. I don't have the dvd but used to have it on vhs.

Gormenghast - the only book I have ever read where I needed a dictionary to help me understand what was going on!

I've always wanted to read it but never got around to it, it was probably too heavy for me when I was in my teens and chose the David Eddings books over it in the book shop. If I enjoy the mini-series i'll reconsider picking it up

I'd stick with Garrion and co.

New arrivals.

Arrow's Phenomena 4K UHD set arrived on Friday. Will watch on Monday afternoon as that is the next shared day off for my wife and I. It's actually one of my least favourite Argento 'golden age' films but I'm still excited to revisit it, looking the absolute best it can. btw The least favourite description doesn't mean that I actively dislike it, it's just that most of the other films from that era are much better imo.

Picked this up today.

From CEX. £10 for three seasons.

A lot of people forget that these first seasons at least, tied in to the MCU movies. Phil Caulson's return, Lady Sif, Hydra and events running along side Captain America Winter Soldier. I lost track of the series after these seasons.
The episodes with Victoria Hand and Hydra I thought were great and there are the Bobbi Morse (Mockingbird) episodes.
So, even if I don't get anymore after these seasons, I have the episodes I really want. Nice.

I have all the seasons on dvd...well all the ones that are actually available. The final two never got a dvd release for some stupid reason. It doesn't really matter as season five wraps things up nicely anyway.

Oh and it's nice to see seasons of 24 episodes rather than the six, eight or ten we get nowadays.

Finally joining the collection!
