    Well it was only meant to be his foot that is lost upon the Sutherland.

    Horatio Hornblower

    I was a big fan of the series when I was growing up but found the television programming did not live up to my expectations and on the whole it felt like a re-hash of Sharpe in some ways.

    Sci-Fi/Fantasy for those that love sex and violence?

    Thanks for the suggestions. One or two I think I will give a miss. I have already read Battle Royale and loved it (the manga was much,much more graphic!!!), the same with the Conan series by Howard. I do not like Brett Easton Ellis at all I am afraid.

    Sci-Fi/Fantasy for those that love sex and violence?

    I have been neglecting reading reading for awhile now, but I am in a barbaric mood most of the time, does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations of literature that is heavy on sex and brutal savage violence?

    Mr. Vampire

    I think they hop because of Chinese belief or something, where the feet are bound at death and then they must hope back home to rest or something. Nonetheless the Mr.Vampire films are great fun.

    What is your fav Japanese anime/manga?

    At the moment I have gone mad on Tokyo Tribes. But for me works like Akira, Jin-Roh and Ghost In The Shell will always be amongst my favorites.

    Dubbed or Subbed?

    I watched afew of the vile American re-dubs of Jackie Chan and Jet Li films. More than the sickening dubbing was the new musical scores cut into the originally great films. The thing with re-dubbing is that details can be changed.....I think this may have been the case with Tsui Harks Once Upon...

    Battle Royale

    I am surprised anyone on here even likes this film slightly, it approaches me that people on here are more tuned onto the style and mood of films like Children Of Men. I liked the manga of the story too, lots more violence.....and sex!!!!

    What was the last movie you saw?

    Just finished watching The Fifth Cord. It was decent giallo film. I have a fondness for this genre.....if anyone knows where any of the original stories are or were published I would love to know. The film itself had all the formula of the usual giallo film but had a good and...

    Conan

    Yes but its the same old tale in my opinion.....the only time we brand a woman as strong is when she emulates the behaviour of man. Like I'm a powerful woman because I'm a pirate, I'm a strong woman because I'm a warrior, but they ultimately yeild to a stronger person, a man. I fail to see how...

    Influences

    William Hope Hodgeson was one of Lovecrafts influences. There are Lovecraftian undertones in the afore mentioned writers, though Hodgesons work pre-dates Lovecrafts, I brand anything to do with cosmic horror as Lovecraft territory. I liked House On The Borderland a great deal...

    What Motivates You to Write?

    I write because I have a deep seated hatred of society and humanity. We lie, betray, cheat and steal, then excuse ourselves by pleading weakness and portray ourselves as pathetic to attain forgiveness. We are superficial and cowardly, yet arrogantly claim to be more, rather than actually...

    Conan

    Who cares if he had strong female characters......Conan was written for men, or people for people who find the idea of a strong man appealing, he did as he wished and that was his appeal. Wenching, drinking and fighting. I'm glad to be exposed to something that does not have a strong female...
