  1. I have never seen Hitchcock's " The Farmers Wife" but anything by Hitchcock is worth at least one viewing. "Frenzy" is his final great thriller- yes it's more explicit than his earlier films but that's Hitch keeping up with the more permissive sensors. The scene with the Inspector trying the new dishes is very funny- the other classic bits- the slow pull back from the killers flat and the struggle in the potato truck.

  2. A mix of high camp ( why are the Olympian gods dressed in silver armor?!) and some effective special effects action scenes ( the giant scorpions are very cool) Sam Worthington looks and acts more like a modern day marine than a Greek hero. The post-production 3 - D effects are awful.. Harryhausen's Medusa was better and the Kraken looks like a left over from some Godzilla epic.

  3. I really miss the great magazine there is nothing like it now doing in depth reporting on new and classic science- fiction, fantasy and horror cinema. The late Frederic S Clarke really gave genre films the respect they rarely get.
