The simple words 'Good evening' have never been the same since legendary film director Alfred Hitchcock took to the small screen as the host of Alfred Hitchcock Presents an anthology of classic mystery and suspense stories. Each episode opens with Hitchcock's instantly recognizable silhouette and the show's creepily familiar theme song. The famously contrary host fills in the audience on a detail of the episode while poking not so subtle fun at the show's advertisers. Elements of horror comedy suspense and things that go bump in the night all seasoned with a trademark Hitchcock twist distinguish the 30-minute stories. Episodes Comprise: 1. Wet Saturday 2.

Masters Of Science Fiction unites some of the genre's most revered names including John Kessel Robert A. Heinlein Howard Fast Walter Mosley Robert Sheckley and Harlen Ellison.
Shocker allows Wes Craven to hang onto his title as the master of the horror genre--but only just. Centring once more on a charismatic lead character (Horace Pinker) Shocker continues Craven's penchant for combining fantasy and horror. Pinker (played with zeal by Mitch Pileggi of X-Files fame) is a serial killer--the "family slasher"--terrorising the inhabitants of the city of. Having murdered the foster family and girlfriend of all-American boy Jonathon Parker (Peter Berg), the latter finds he can foresee Pinker's actions in his dreams. The resulting supernatural developments (including ghosts, magic charms and possessed bodies) are more than a little muddled but underpinned by the continuous gruesome hack and slash action. A film with its brain most definitely disengaged, Shocker is still undemanding, wince-inducing fun. On the DVD: Not much to offer from this format. The splendidly dated 1980's American heavy metal soundtrack (including Kiss and Megadeth) comes through loud and clear and the sound effects are certainly horribly audible. Picture quality is fine but not spectacular. Extras are limited to scene selection, the trailer and a selection of storyboards and their cinematic equivalents. --Phil Udell
Sir John Betjeman the nation's best loved poet hosts this classic eulogy to the people and places served by London's Metropolitan Line.

Betjeman contrasts the old and new ways of life as he follows the Neasden nature trail visits the Pinner village fair plays a round of golf at Moor Park and explores the historical houses along the line. From Baker Street to the forgotten station at Quainton Road Sir John Betjeman is your guide on an eccentric and unforgettable journey into Metro-Land.
The first of several lavish Christie adaptations from producers John Brabourne and Richard Goodwin introducing Albert Finney as the first screen Hercule Poirot. This 1974 production of Agatha Christie's 1934 classic is a judicious mixture of mystery murder and nostalgia. Which member of the all-star cast onboard the luxurious train perforated the no-good American tycoon with a dagger twelve times? Was it Ingrid Bergman's shy Swedish missionary; or Vanessa Redgrave's English rose; Sean Connery as an Indian Army Colonel: Michael York or Jacqueline Bisset; perhaps Lauren Bacall; Anthony Perkins or John Gielgud as the victim's impassive butler. Finney spreads unease among them with subdued wit and finesse. Arguably the most successful screen adaptation of a Christie novel in addition to Bergman's Oscar for Best Supporting Actress 'Murder On The Orient Express' achieved nominations for Best Actor Screenplay Photography Costume Design and Music Score.
