What Have You Bought Recently?

Picked up the 3-disc collector's edition of The Deep End from HMV today for £19.99 (one of the few things that wasn't hilariously over-priced). Funny thing is the sales advisor said that it had only come into stock a few days ago, so I can only assume that they must have had some copies at their own warehouse and so escaped the fire. I had actually been looking for Shogun Assassin, but he reckoned that anything from the Enfield fire would be out of stock for a couple of months now.

Picked up the following over the weekend, 50p each from a charity shop:-

Freddy's Dead - The Final Nightmare - I know this is pretty bad but it's the only one I need to complete my NOES collection (except the remake, which doesn't count!)

Edge of Terror - I know nothing about this except it's directed by the same bloke who did 'Island of Death' so thought it worth a look on that basis.

I love Zombie Strippers, i seem to be in a minority though, let me know what you think of it.

I really loved it to especially Robert englunds character.

Isn't it so people with notebooks and things like iPads -- devices with decent screens but no DVD/BD drive -- can watch the film on the train or as passengers on long car journeys?

Anyway, last night I ordered To Live and Die in L.A., the US BD.

Yeah, Mines shipped too. Love this film so much, can't wait.

My Synapse's version of The Exterminator has shipped today from Planet Axel!

Will have to check out Death Watch.
I'll get a review up when I've seen ZS.

The thing i disliked most about it was the cast all British were playing Germans and speaking english, without any hint of a German accent. It drove me nuts. Oh and it was deadly dull .

It doesn't bother me if Tom Cruise plays a German in a film and puts on a dodgy German accent as in Valkyrie for example, at least you get the idea, but Germans speakng cockney. No.
