Hauser was superb as Ramrod in the brilliant Vice Squad. :cool:

This weekends films have included;

HARRY BROWN Excellent film.

GI JOE A steaming pile of shit.

FUNERAL IN BERLIN Another entertaining Harry Palmer yarn.

DELTA FORCE 2 Cheesy Chuck again.

3 Episodes of THE EQUALISER-Edward,you're sorely missed.

THE BEYOND Just gets better with each viewing.It looked great played in the Blu Ray player.

i actually hated Mutant because it was so badly made it was crap, Theres a bit where a zombie attacks a car and you can see his non zombie hand holding the zombie hand, utter drivle.

GI joe is an absolute masterpeice. how dare you call it a steaming pile of shit, i was like a 10 year old boy watching this, i was in awe of what was on the screen because i've waited nearly all my life for this to come to the big screen. I am completely insulted....:laugh::laugh:

I watched The Beyond on saturday.A couple of guys with great taste is what we are Reaps. :D

A very under-rated flick, I reckon. Wish there was a full ratio version of it around. I have an oft-watched 4:3 pan & scan on Boulevard I got for £1 from a charity shop. It's great fun even in such cropped form!

I've had a proper square-eyed day (I suppose nowadays that should be "16:9 rectangluar-eyed"!) I have sat through Hush, Deathwatch, Mum & Dad, Creature From The Haunted Sea and Last Woman On Earth. Reviews to follow, but probably tomorrow: I'm knackered now!

While I was on holiday in the Philippines I picked up a film called 2LDK, it had a picture of a Japanese girl weilding a chainsaw on the front and was cheap so it was a no brainer really.

Its about two girls who share a flat and are both up for the same role in a film. Bickering turns to violence and soon the girls are fighting each other with such things as samuria swords and bare electrical wiring.

It takes a little while to get going (but I didnt find the build up boring at all) and its not overly gory but its definatly great fun!

Annoyingly though the making of is subtitled in german only.

For me Billion Dollar Brain was the only Palmer film to get close to the original Ipcress File. Perhaps the brief appearance by Susan George helped though. :biggrin:

It's a shame that the Billion Dollar Brain dvd lost the scene featuring The Beatles Hard Days Night.It was just a lucky thing that that scene starts and finishes with Harry entering and exiting a room.If you didnt know the scene was there,you wouldn't even notice it's absence.

It was intact in the old video though it featured the slightly cut cinema print. Can't win them all I guess.
