I had to highlight this tribute to Mamoru Oshii's live action film "Stray Dogs - Keberos Panzer Cops" in the new animated movie "Patlabor EZY - File 1". They literally recreated almost all of the shots from the original 1991 trailer.

If you only ever watch one episode of TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED, make it "The Flypaper". It's disturbing. Roald Dahl *wished* he could have come up with this story.

Trapped in “The Flypaper”: Revisiting the Most Horrifying “Tales of the Unexpected” Episode

Tales of the Unexpected (1979–1988) started off with a foundation of Roald Dahl-based stories, but over time, this classic television anthology sought out other inspirations. One such source was Eliza...

Currently reorganising my paperbacks and came across my TNT collection - aka the wildest, most ridiculous and over-the-top men’s adventure series ever published. Let the synopses give you a taste of what’s inside:

A series of seven paperback books, all with black covers, all with varying illustration of the same man’s face - holding a gun, a knife, a hook etc. He is extraordinarily chiselled and rugged. Anthony Nicholas Twin vs. The Black Widow Six of the richest men in the world. All dead. All had been married to the same mysterious woman. A woman so elegant, so deeply sensual, no man could resist her. No man, except of course, TNT. But when the deadly seductress traps TNT on a mirrored bed suspended from a helicopter high over the Empire State Building-the man with the uncanny sexual prowess has to make a crucial decision-become the black widow's new mate or end up as a grease spot on Fifth Avenue... TNT It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before. Meet Anthony Nicholas Twin. He goes all the way. And then keeps going. In the wilds of Paraguay is hidden a legendary city of sex and gold. For centuries its citizens have lived in peace. But now the fanatical Torquemada is stealing their treasure to finance his scheme to become the worldwide Napoleon of Terrorism. TNT's choice: infiltrate Torquemada's fascist killer corps by surviving their incredible suicide training. Or watch the only human he loves, sweet innocent October, subjected to the most hideous torture ever dreamed of by animal or man! TNT It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before.Anthony Nicholas Twin in a battle for blood Eleven people. All with the same rare blood type. All dead. Butchered and bled by international terrorists. One woman. The only possible donor left in the world. Frozen-her body rests in a secret cryogenic laboratory in Hungary. TNT is about to enter a living, breathing hell of staggering proportions. A Kingdom of Death-where blood runs cold and hearts cease to beat at the push of a button. It is a nightmare world that leaves TNT only two choices-kill with razor-edged precision...or end up as a human popsicle... TNT It begins beyond anything you have ever experienced before.

if you've been enjoying The Prisoner on Criterion Channel, might i recommend Tsui Hark's first american feature Double Team starring JCVD and Dennis Rodman, the middle act of which is a loving homage to the show where Van Damme is trapped in Not The Village
