• Henry - Portrait Of A Serial Killer | DVD | (25/05/2001) from £13.59   |  Saving you £-3.60 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Most horror films exist in a fantasy movie-world safely removed from our existence, populated by zombie-like killers and psychopathic madmen. The power of Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is its chilling placement in the mundane existence of everyday life. Michael Rooker plays Henry not as a raving psychopath but as the frumpy guy next door, a drifter who takes out his frustrations on random victims and escalates his body count after teaming up with the violent ex-con Otis (Tom Towles). Though not exceedingly gory in light of the excesses of such fantasy horrors as the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street series, director John McNaughton's straightforward presentation and documentary-like style creates a chilling realism that many viewers will find hard to watch. McNaughton neither comments on nor flinches at the brutal violence, which reaches its apex in a disturbing camcorder-eye view of a particularly sadistic murder of a middle-class couple, with Henry and Otis smiling through the deed as they record it for their continued pleasure. Henry straddles the line between True Crime (though fictional, the story was inspired by the confessions of real-life serial killer Henry Lee Lucas) and horror, a bleak, brutal kind of terror for a generation deadened by the escalating outrageousness of movie murders and nightly news crime scene clips. --Sean Axmaker, Amazon.com

• Space Precinct - Vol. 1 - Double Duty / Protect And Survive | DVD | (05/09/2002) from £22.98   |  Saving you £-7.99 (-53.30%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Space Precinct is one of the oddest science-fiction shows ever. Launched at the same time as Babylon 5, and looking like a cross between that series and Blade Runner (1982), it is like B5 about a group of interplanetary peacekeepers on a space station around an alien planet. Except that, rather than any extrapolated SF future, an entire New York police unit has been transferred into space, lock, stock and two smoking raygun barrels. Produced by Gerry Anderson, the result seems too adult for children, too juvenile for adults. "Double Duty", the first episode, for example, involves our cop heroes hunting the alien monster that is slaughtering Demiter City's drug dealers, and the copious blood and one particular sexual reference suggest an adult show at odds with the nice children, cute aliens, comic relief robot and simplistic scenario. On the plus side, the special effects are especially lavish by TV standards, and the "Making of" documentary offers an interesting if brief introduction to modern SFX. Human actors wearing complex animatronic alien heads suggest aspects of Anderson's puppet shows (Stingray, Thunderbirds) meeting his live action series (UFO, Space 1999). Technically accomplished, Space Precinct is a genuine curiosity in search of a cult-audience. --Gary S. Dalkin

• This Land Australia With Ted Egan - Norfolk Island | DVD | (13/09/2010) from £10.98   |  Saving you £2.01 (15.50%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Norfolk Island is an eight by six kilometre paradise set in the blue waters of the South West Pacific Ocean about 1500 kilometres east of the Australian mainland. The island was secured by the British in 1788 just a few weeks after the settlement at Sydney Cove. It was abandoned after a few years until 1824 when it became one of the most terrible and feared of England's penal settlements. Norfolk's historic buildings and scenic hills belie the bloody past. But the graveyards and the chronicles testify to the brutality and terror of those awful years. The Island was abandoned for a second time. But it was re-settled by the descendants of The Bounty Mutineers who moved there from the more isolated Pitcairn Island in 1856. BONUS PROGRAM - This Land Australia With Ted Egan: The Islands Of Torres Strait Torres Strait is a treacherous waterway between Cape York the northern most tip of the Australian mainland and Papua New Guinea. The shallow strait is dotted with islands and coral outcrops. From Possession Island at the southern extremity Captain James Cook formally laid claim to the Australian colonies in the name of England. Later the Queensland Government moved to take control of the islands of the strait and their people. Once the islanders' currency of trade was human heads and headhunting raids between the islands and the mainland of Papua New Guinea was a part of life. But Christianity is now well entrenched throughout the island communities and headhunting days are over. On this journey through the islands Ted Egan meets up with some old friends sees dugout canoes being built and meets the keeper of the legendary Drums of Mer.
