VHS : Afterburn [1992]
I have to agree with the fellow fan above, afterburn is a monumental epic worthy of all it's praise. Touching, emotional and with a thrill factor of MACH5! Strap yourselfs in, once you start watching you wont want to eject. Don't let afterburn fly by

VHS : Too Young To Die? - A True Story


Amanda is 15 years old and arrested for murder she is a user of street drugs and alcohol, a prostitute raped by a family member and married. All this before her sixteenth birthday, this film was BASED on a true story, and I believe that's the twister in this film. Based on a story, probably means that many scenarios were added to spice it up. Although I have tried to research this film and came across some information that is contradictory. I tried to find out about executions carried out in Oklahoma and also Amanda's execution. Oklahoma has never used the gas chamber for executions. Electrocution was used from early 1915 til 1966 using, Old Sparky. Electric chair since 1977, the prescribed method is lethal injection. This film ... Read More:

VHS : Into Thin Air - Death On Everest [1997]
I'm a non-mountaineer who has no desire ever to become one, but I found this film totally compelling and most moving. I defy anyone not to weep at the scene where Rob Hall speaks to his wife as he lies dying.

I have seen it three times now, and have read the book upon which it is based, and others. I appreciate that the film may be a partial view, based as it is on one man's account, and I agree that at times it can be confusing, but the story and action are so strong that they carry you through.

As most of the audience won't be expert mountaineers, and as anyone interested can find out as much as they like by reading the books, I think this film is an admirable success.

VHS : The Tuskegee Airmen [1995]
You'd be forgiven for thinking that no Black men or women were even remotely involved in the Second World War so little attention is paid to their contribution. Having read 4 (count 'em - 4) books about said contribution in the First and the Second World Wars I've long found it strange how rarely their presence is acknowledged in 'mainstream' films. For this reason alone 'The Tuskegee Airmen' would be worth seeing if it weren't for some excellent performances from the leads. This film is for those looking for one of the many 'lost' chapters in the history of those terrible conflicts.
