I just couldn't get on with 3. I liked 2 very much up until the actual ending. I felt it ruined the credibility quite a bit.

Did you ever see the 4th one (aka The Beginning) which was a made for TV prequel? Henry Thomas played young Norman and Olivia Hussey was his mom. Surprisingly enjoyable in parts and the performances were pretty good. Even John Landis turned up as the radio station owner.

Like Omen 4 I can't say I thought much of the 4th Psycho film. There was also Bates Motel but I can't remember it very well, but it was on TV once some years ago.

YIPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

I watched "Zombi Holocaust" last night. Very bloody and gory cannibal/zombie film. I think it may be gorier than Fulci's ZFE. And everyone loves gore!!

Plus it mixes genre's by having Cannibals AND Zombies! Hurrah!

Watched a Dutch import of Hammer's The Reptile.

I haven't seen the ABUS release, but this wipes the floor with the recent UK disc. Pq is excellent.

Great film too, as it happens

Other than the John Barry theme The Adventurer didn't do much for me. I preferred The Baron.

Both the Strange Report & The Baron are out here on dvd.I'll get these & Man In A Suitcase eventually.

Man In A Suitcase is the best of the 3 by far. Equally essential is Department S which I found far superior to Wyngarde's Jason King spin off.
