![]() Leon Klimovsky’s The Werewolf vs Vampire Woman (1971), despite a 4K restoration and a reputation for being one of Paul Naschy’s best movies, is slow and dull, with occasionally effective imagery – Naschy has an avid fan base, but in the handful of his movies that I’ve seen he seems an uninteresting and uncharismatic actor. ![]() Rosenthal obviously recognized this as he took his name off the final product, which is credited to Alan Smithee. ![]() Of the most recent acquisitions from Vinegar Syndrome, only a couple really warrant a thoughtful comment … as for the rest: Rick Rosenthal’s belated and misguided “sequel” to Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds, The Birds II: Land’s End (1994) is an act of hubris which merely illustrates how good the original is by falling so far short. ![]() Does that mean I’m increasingly wasting my time when I ought to be concentrating on more challenging and worthwhile movies? Probably… Looking over the pile of recently-watched Blu-rays by my desk, I find there’s not a lot to say about most of them. ![]() An ancient vampire is foolishly revived in Leon Klimovsky’s The Werewolf vs Vampire Woman (1971) ![]() ![]() Stranded in the resort, Milla's not sure what's worse: the increasingly sinister things happening around her or the looming snowstorm that's making escape even more impossible.

Packed weight 650gms. Because something is coming for the passengers on the Oceanus. Soon Dan will discover that there are some things worse than murder, and the body he saw is just the beginning. Review of the excellent Adrift 3: Rising by. The ship is a perfect floating paradise, but when Dan spots what he thinks is a body being thrown overboard, he begings to suspect that not everybody aboard the Oceanus is there for a vacation. The first two books in K.R.Griffiths Wildfire series are currently free. SYNOPSIS: "For artist Dan Bellamy and his new bride Elaine, a trip on the world's biggest, newest cruise ship represents more than just the honeymoon of a lifetime: it is also a celebration of the progress Dan has made toward beating the agoraphobia that has plagued him since he suffered an horrific knife attack two years earlier. This is book #21 of 50 and is SIGNED by K R Griffiths on the limitation page. ![]() Bought new at publication and stored carefully ever since. This is a signed numbered limited edition hardback (50 copies only). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() During the 1873-'74 famine, the Bengal lieutenant governor, Richard Temple, saved many lives by importing and distributing food. So, authorities removed boats (the region's lifeline), and the police destroyed and seized rice stocks. Mr Churchill also pushed a scorched earth policy-which went by the sinister name of Denial Policy-in coastal Bengal, where the colonisers feared the Japanese would land. As imports dropped, prices shot up, and hoarders made a killing. Churchill turned down fervent pleas to export food to India, citing a shortage of ships-this when shiploads of Australian wheat, for example, would pass by India to be stored for future consumption in Europe. This would have kept nearly 400,000 people alive for an entire year. India exported more than 70,000 tonnes of rice between January and July 1943, even as the famine set in. Bengal famine resulted from food scarcity caused by large-scale exports of food from India for use in the war theatres and consumption in Britain. ![]() ![]() A sense of not belonging, being different, and an outsider are the main topics of this story, but also finding people who look beyond the surface and see someone they like and can get along with and are accepting. As a kid myself, I didn't see some of her behavior in the book as problematical, but as an adult, she does come across as a bit of a brat, but given that some of the adults around her are less than friendly, and see her as a troublemaker even when she's not, I cannot say that I blame her either.Īs an adult, listening to the audio version of this book, I found I could analyze what about this book drew me in as a kid and there was a lot. She's also a fairly serious person and prefers to read to being rowdy, for all that she really wants friends. She has unusual colored eyes and has the gift? curse? of telekinesis or the ability to move objects with only her mind. Roberts would revisit Katie and her friends to see how things had turned out for them, but I guess she'd said what she wanted to say and there was no more to say. Thing is, a good book is a good book regardless of the age it's aimed at and this is a good book, hands down. Yes, I know, I'm 51 reading a kid's book. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him.

And with Superheavy, Snyder's Batman has in some respects reached the apex and beyond of what this Batman can be - a Batman who fought the Joker in public view, a Batman whom Gotham City believes gave his life for them, and further, a Batman they've now tried to replace with a gaudy robotic suit. Snyder's Batman fights, in some respects, scarier and more real-world terrors than the Batman who fought macabre terrors in the shadows. In the fourth volume Snyder's Batman achieved a new level of fluorescence and flamboyance, a Batman who operates in the sun. With Zero Year, Snyder reached escape velocity from the grim and gritty of Frank Miller's Batman that pervaded for decades, even into Grant Morrison's run. But somewhere toward the end of Death of the Family, as perhaps the iconography of Snyder's Joker even more so than the story reached ubiquity and the notoriety of this run became something else, so did Snyder's run itself. ![]() This all began routinely enough with the exceptional but arguably traditional Night of the Owls books, followed also by the relatively traditional Death of the Family. ![]() ![]() 8: Superheavy continues the wild, twisting saga of Scott Snyder's Batman. ![]() |
