MASSACRE IN DINOSAUR VALLEY:[*]Location, Location, Cannibalisation - Dr Calum Waddell on Cannibalising Cultures[/LIST]
SEVEN DEATHS IN THE CAT'S EYE:
Audio Commentary from Genre Expert Troy Howarth

I watched Hands of Steel yesterday and really enjoyed it. It looks and sounds very good, as does Seven Deaths in the Cat's Eye – the Troy Howarth commentary is well worth a listen.

I saw an advanced version of Location, Location, Cannibalisation some time ago and it is a really good look at the cannibal series of films and their use of the locations in which they were filmed, or purported to have used, by Calum Waddell. It will be an excellent addition to that release of Massacre in Dinosaur Valley.

It was my first ever viewing of the movie, and it wasn't just the score that was inspired by The Terminator!

Interesting views on Hands of Steel. I kinda' discarded it from my thoughts thinking it was a Terminator rip off and not worth bothering with.

It's more than a 'rip-off' – it actually draws on Blade Runner with a little exploration of what makes someone human and features some genuinely interesting scenes between the two main characters and exciting action sequences. As such, it is worth checking out and shouldn't be so quickly dismissed.

I have this on VHS but not seen it for years... will definitely pick up the blu at some point.
