• A Town Called Hell | DVD | (28/06/2010) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  A group of Mexican revolutionaries murder a town priest and a number of his christian followers. Ten years later a widow arrives in town intent to take revenge from her husband's killers. This film starts in spectacular fashion as a gang of rebels gun down the entire congregation of a church young and old including the priest. The barbaric nature of this opening continues throughout A Town Called Hell. The majority of the movie is set in the Mexican town of Bastardo which is under the leadership of Don Carlos (Telly Savalas). A hearse arrives at the gates with an empty coffin and two passengers - Alvira (Stella Stevens) a blonde widower clothed in black and her mysterious unnamed companion (Dudley Sutton). She is searching for the man that killed her husband and offers Carlos gold if he will hand over the guilty man - who she believes to be named Aguila.

  For the time, there had never been a more lavishly produced science fiction TV series than Space: 1999, which was British-made on an astounding first-season budget of 3.25 million pounds, and ran for two seasons from 1975-77. What keeps fans enthralled after all these years has only partly to do with the first-rate production values, the plausibly constructed spaceship models and expert special effects. The tone of the show is one of scientific dispassion, setting it apart from its TV SF predecessors such as Star Trek in which the mood is more generally convivial. Our heroes here are in dire circumstances that require cool heads as a survival trait. Those circumstances: the moon and the 311 crew members of Moonbase Alpha experience a cataclysm that causes the moon to break away from Earth orbit and travel endlessly through space, making our heroes into unintentional explorers. No TV series has created a more palpable feel of hard science fiction than this. Of course, the show is not without its detractors, having been soundly lambasted for its many scientific errors. No less august a figure than Isaac Asimov criticised the show for its premise in the opening episode "Breakaway", which had nuclear explosions on the "dark side of the moon" somehow propelling it out of Earth orbit and flying through space without regard to physical law. In "Earthbound", aliens travelling to Earth state it will take them 75 years to reach their destination, making one wonder why it didn't take the moon that long to encounter the aliens. While these are serious complaints, fans tend to remember the scientific seriousness of the series and the sense of awe created by the many strange creatures and phenomena they encounter on their journey through the galaxy. --Jim Gay, Amazon.com
