One has to be very careful when watching 3D porn...

On the Ning Nang Nong, where the treetops bong, and the monkeys all say boo!

And upwards Have you started printing your own? That's quite a haul of new stuff!

Yay!!!!

Brilliant start. I'm on tenterhooks already.

Looking good!!!!

Unblock the Bloch...

More Bloch....

Keeping on a theme of TVH's artist's edition and Psycho, I offer you this...

Equally good are some of the trailers he did for the movies, Rope and The Birds are standouts as is this....

I'll P.M. you my address, so you'll know where to send 'em

I've never read the book , nor seen the film . I have read all the Flashman novels and seen this...

I liked them both as actors both OTT in their performances, but always entertaining. Laughton's Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of my first film memories on TV and Newton's Blackbeard was the 1st film I saw at the pictures.

That's a great shame, because apart from the addition of the bale marks it really is a nice solid copy. I'm going to say say I think you'll get a 3.0. see how the others go with it!

I did see something about this. If I'm honest, I haven't been overly keen on some of the Beeb's recent efforts at adapting novels or their making of historical drama. I've not read any of Daph's books, but have read plenty of 19th century authors, and she probably harks back to those days. Hitchcock must have liked her stuff as he did Rebecca,, though it was Selznik who chose that to film, and his last British film Jamaica Inn, with Laughton and Newton, which I call the battle of the eyebrows. I think Charlie's eyebrow in this shot is off to find the nearest leaf...

I think she's already on the case as the spider is already missing two legs!

This woman appears to be very good a squidging spiders: handy if you're arachnophobic. She'd have her work cut out with this baby though.....

A 7.5 hit with potential imo. Nice one!

A 5.0 from me. Shame about the shadow, but great book nonetheless.

6.5 for me

You have to admit, that's beautiful.

Here one for the bad movies list. Director Rick Rosenthal used the pseudonym Alan Smithee, the name directors use to distance the disassociate themselves from a movie.

I was 13/14 when I first saw this, and viewed it on a 9" b/w telly when the BBC showed it in the early 70s, so it didn't really register with me then. When I watched it in later years with a better understanding and appreciation of Hitchcock's films, it has become a firm favourite in his canon of work. I've never considered it a horror, (same with Psycho), or SF, but more in the genre of psychological drama/thriller The ending left me baffled, but I now think that there is no reason for the birds attacking, which leaves you with the sense of doubt and adds to the scare effect.
