h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

but what about the notorious Herbert sex scenes

I was wondering that... mayb he has a 'thing' for doing filthy things to lettuce leaves?

*decides Creachy's being single minded*

Well, the catterpillar itself could be considered a phalic symbol. Especially if your name is Freud.

Seriously Kitty,James Herbert is noted foor his very graphic n gratuitious sex scenes..only Clive Barker beats him on that one!..Laurell Hamiltons getting close though!..her last book was more like a porno than a horror/mystery

so...

Stop looking all smug boy just cos you was right for once..
you wanting a lend of this newone when ive reaad it?

no, it's ok thankyou, i wil buy my own copy and keep the publishing business going forth and rewarding those gallant men and women known as authors with the riches they truly deserve for their work. although your offer is a noble one it would rob Mr Herbert of one sale that is rightfully his

Oh sod you then

Speaking of horror..what vids (or dvds if my ps2 has turned up) we gonna watch friday? Ive got a few horrors..

i'll bring a couple round and we can just see what everyone fancies when we get a few beers down our necks

and we will be ordering that garlic pizza thing

Yeah i was expecting a pizza would be ordered.. thats why i wasnt gonna do too many nibbly bits

What you got then? cant have anything too gory unfortunately or Tol will freak

I can brings my PS2 and DVD's/ Vids round. Although I don't really have any horrors. And it HAS to be horrors on halloween.

i have got,

what lies beneath, which is cool.

evil dead 2, which you already have.

Braindead, which is brilliant and funy but loadsa gore, cheap gore, but loads of it.

a couple of early Krueger films but i spect that will freak Tol right out.

Amityville, enough said on that one.

oh, and Labrynth, which isn't essentially scary but i like it

Ive got Halloween (bit of a must that), Hellraiser, Evil Dead, Rocky HOrror Picture show (not horror but halloween enough) , Dog soldiers is around somewhere..i used to have loads.
I can always have a raid of stees collection..hes got mostly recent stuff though n the oldies are the best

Simpost...

Nah its the original (and best) Evil Dead that ive got.. the freddies would be ok..but braindeads a definate no no unfortunately
Feck Amytiville..scares me witless that does! What did you think to Darkness Falls? I thought it ws pretty good..

really?! i thought it sucked of rhinoceros poo! it is obviously a rip off of 'They' which came out a few months earlier and a bad one at that!

it annoys me when someone has a good idea but it gets lost in deadlines and budget it could have been a quality film, but they hashed it up big time. the plot was empty by mid-film and was surviving solely on special effects shockers which were too far and few between. they should have built on the background of the legend more and tried to explain why something that is a legend and hasn't been witnessed since it's inception suddenly decides to basically attack a town just to get one boy. that made no sense, it became a godzilla of a muck up when it did that. i was very disappointed.

what the industry needs is someone that can mix all the special effects technology of modern day cinema harmoniously with the tension grippers of Hitchcock and Barkeresque horror.

I meant it was pretty good by todays standards of course.. I didnt feel it was much like they of course.. more Jeepers Creepers. anything with a fairy tale undertone tends to spook me anyway.


That Cabin Fever on at the pics looks like it might be ok ..were gonna go see it..wanna come so we can hide behind you n make you hold the popcorn?

who is 'we'?

Me,Tol and possibly Sacha if we can drag her out

hmmm, we'll see after this friday

If you survive you mean?
