• Hell Night | DVD | (04/03/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Hell Night, a horror film originally made in 1981, is not remotely frightening unless, that is, you are plagued with a pathological aversion to leaden scripts, rampant overacting and cheap special effects; but it is just about knowing enough to be charming, and retains a (very) slight kitsch appeal. The plot--in the loose sense of the word--sees a group of picturesque young college kids compelled, for some reason or other, to spend a night in a haunted house (you can just picture the high fives at the script meeting when some genius came up with that one). Some other college kids try to scare them by way of a prank, but it turns out that something evil really is loose on the premises, and events unfold with entrancing predictability. On the DVD: Hell Night is presented in widescreen, and has been digitally remastered. Special features include brief biographies of actor Linda Blair, director Tom De Simone and producers Irwin Yablans and Bruce Cohn Curtis, as well as the option to watch the film with commentary provided by the four. The original cinema and television trailers for Hell Night are also included.--Andrew Mueller

• Genesis - The Genesis Songbook | DVD | (16/07/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  When Peter Gabriel Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford joined forces in the late sixties their initial intentions were not to be recording artists in their own right but rather songwriters writing songs that would ultimately be recorded by other artists. That initial plan soon fell by the wayside when in the early seventies the group secured a record deal and started releasing albums as Genesis. During the subsequent years the group progressed from being at the forefront of the underground scene with the release of such albums as Trespass and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway to become the household names upon the release of multi-million selling albums such as We Can't Dance and Invisible Touch. By talking to the individual members of the group - long-standing members Tony Banks Phil Collins and Mike Rutherford ex-members Peter Gabriel Steve Hackett Anthony Phillips Daryl Stuermer and Jonathan Silver and the last singer Ray Wilson we will discover what they consider to be their favourite Genesis songs and the reasons why certain songs have a special place in the Genesis story. Features cuts from: 'I Can't Dance' 'Invisible Touch' 'Follow You Follow Me' 'The Musical Box' 'Supper's Ready' 'I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)' 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway' 'Afterglow' 'Misunderstanding' 'Turn It On Again' 'Mama' and 'Land of Confusion'.

  Anzio: Robert Mitchum Peter Falk and Arthur Kennedy star in the rivetting war drama Anzio a vivid portrait of one of the bloodiest WWII battles ever fought.

But instead of heading to Rome Lesley attempts to build a coastal stronghold only to discover that the Germans have outflanked them by enclosing the Anzio beachhead. Four months and over 30 000 casualties later the Allied forces smash through the German lines and victoriously march to Rome. Directed by Edward Dmytryk (The Caine Mutiny Back To Bataan) Anzio is a powerful film and a symbol of heroic tenacity. The Beast: War brings out the beast in every man. Afghanistan 1981 and the Soviet Union is locked in a futile and bloody battle with the Mujahedeen guerillas. Separated from their patrol the crew of a Russian T-62 tank engages in a deadly game of cat and mouse with the local insurgents led by Taj (Steven Bauer). The tyrannical tank commander Daskal (George Dzundza) wreaks havoc on a peaceful Afghani village pushing the moral boundaries of the tank driver Koverchenko (Jason Patric) to the limits. Sensing mutiny the psychotic Daskal abandons the disenchanted tanker to die in the desert at the hand of rebels only to find he's sealed his own fate. A Soldiers Story: Tensions flare in this gripping film about a murder on a black army base near the end of World War II. Captain Davenport (Howard E. Rollins Jr.) a proud black army attorney is sent to Fort Neal Louisiana to investigate the ruthless shooting death of Sergeant Waters (Adolph Caesar). Through interviews with Waters' men Davenport learns that he was a vicious man who served the white world and despised his own roots. Was the killer a bigoted white officer?

• Jason King - Vol. 1 - Episodes 1 And 2 - Wanna Buy A TV Series? / A Page Before Dying | DVD | (10/07/2000) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Although crime-writer-turned-detective Jason King, as played by the deep-voiced Peter Wyngarde, was the star supporting character of the 1969-70 series Department S, he seemed rather diminished when given a show of his own, thus robbing him of the straight characters necessary to show off his flamboyance. Jason King also ditched the impossible mysteries of the parent series in favour of more ordinary puzzles that the Saint or any other two-fisted hero could have solved without having to spend so much on fabulous fashion gear. That said, Wyngarde is well-matched by his foils, the value-for-money hams Dennis Price and Ronald Lacey, as the government agents who forced Jason to catch villains for them by threatening to turn him in for failing to pay his back taxes on the earnings of his bestsellers. Jason King was also the only hero on television who would take any brutal beating from the bad guys and shrug it off, only to become quite agitated when they threatened to slice his suits to bits. Volume One includes: "Wanna Buy a Television Series", in which Jason pitches a series based on his books, with guest star Anna Palk; and "A Page Before Dying" wherein Jason's latest book gives away spy secrets, and he's kidnapped to East Germany. --Kim Newman

• Augustus : The First Emperor | DVD | (20/09/2004) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  Augustus is equal parts history lesson and soap opera, and thoroughly engaging at all levels. Peter O'Toole plays Octavius/Augustus, heir to his doomed uncle Julius Caesar's command of the far-flung Roman empire. Surviving an assassination attempt and struck by news of the death of his old friend and ally, Agrippa (Ken Duken), in the same day, Octavius waxes nostalgic about his youthful exploits in Caesar's army (Benjamin Sadler plays the young Augustus in flashbacks) and his unprepared immersion in the deadly politics of the Mark Antony (Massimo Ghini) era. More immediate are Octavius' problems trying to stave off conspiracies by his wife Livia (Charlotte Rampling) to set up the emperor's stepson, Tiberius (Michele Bevilacqua), as heir, and talk his dutiful daughter Julia (Vittoria Belvedere) into a marriage she doesn't want. Roger Young directs this highly watchable costume drama, and O'Toole's golden presence makes the ancient intrigues tragically human. --Tom Keogh
