I have the more recent radio dramas somewhere that I had to listen to whilst I was in hospital although I ended up spending more time socialising and looking after the lady next door to me.

Liking the look of those 'book-ends' too!

I might fall asleep before the end but if I do I hope I'm in for some interesting dreams rather than those of work and dodgy toilets.

An honest-to-God masterpiece. If you haven't already, check out the Vincent Price interview. Outside of the Planet Hollywood debacle, Michael Aspel has never looked so hopeless.

Well that was an unexpected little gem. Definitely not a horror movie, yet sinister and chilling enough to qualify as one with a final shot that sticks in the memory.

It's portrayal of decadence sort of lumps it in with other films of the time such as Breaking of Bumbo and Zee and Co but it's nearest comparison would be the same years Girly.

Well acted by all with interesting directorial flourishes from Alan Gibson, i'd definitely recommend this to anyone.

If anything can take your mind of work then it's Witchfinder General (unless of course you're a witch finder by trade).

However, dodgy toilets may be present... after all it was the 1600s!

Glad you enjoyed it, Dem.

Funny you should bring up the Girly comparison as I think both Odeon and Scorpion released both titles on DVD around the same time as one another respectively.

The toilets wouldn't be dodgy...just the streets.

Thanks for the heads up, I can be a bit lazy when it comes to the extras!

Yes they did. I leapt on Girly so to speak and grabbed the Scorpion release straight away but for some reason never picked up this. I will have to buy Gemini as the one i watched i'm borrowing off a fellow forum member.

Yup, you ain't keeping it though!!
