151.Doctor Who - Castrovalva [1982] [1963] starring: Peter Davison March 02, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.78
A lot of people think it's cool to disrespect the Fifth these days. I spent the last 20 years (not all of it, obviously) rewatching a few stories about Mr. Davison's Doctor (Earthshock, Five Doctors, Resurrection of the Daleks and caves of Androzani) and so I'm left with the impression he was damn fine. I recently started to collect the rest of his era and while he had his ebbs and flows (like all the Doctors) he just never ceases to impress with that cool, charming, dashing Cricketer who has a vulnerable side and yet a hard edge as well. When I got round to Castrovalva, his debt story, I found it one of the most entertaining and well crafted stories of the lot, a real gem, and endlessly rewatchable. I especially love the way the Doctor goes ... Read More:

152.Fantastic Voyage [1966] starring: Stephen Boyd, Raquel Welch, Edmond O'Brien, Donald Pleasence, Arthur O'Connell directed by: Richard Fleischer July 06, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.95
This is a movie that has played tricks in my memory over the years. I first saw this when I was a child, and for some reason recall a much more exciting journey with lots more happenings, including a much longer passing through a beating heart - which doesn't actually happen at all, and so I guess the memory really does play some giant tricks with the passage of time! I guess many young people may be very critical of this film, since nowadays there are so many much more advanced and sophisticated special effects. However, for its day, this was quite brilliant! A group of Experts climb into a submarine and are 'miniaturised' and sent on a mission inside a human body to repair some damage to the patient's ... Read More:

155.Doctor Who - The Creature From The Pit [1979] starring: Tom Baker July 15, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £12.99
this story is one of the many produced by Graham Williams that fans claim to be rubbish and stupid and overlly comical. Well, sorry but youre all very wrong. let me list all the good points of this story: great jungle sets and great wolfweeds great pit sets great actors and great characters, although Lady Arasta is killed off a bit too soon. Shes so nasty, and there arent that many nasty ladies on doctor who and its nice to have a change. and Lalla Ward again gets to have some great scenes! oh, and the whole plot is believable and straightforward. the cliffhanger to part one is a rare unexpected ending too, the doc doing some we might be thinking as stupid and dangerous... is that ...

156.Close Encounters Of The Third Kind [1978] starring: Richard Dreyfuss, François Truffaut, Teri Garr, Melinda Dillon, Bob Balaban directed by: Steven Spielberg September 14, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
Special effects should be convincing, even when this was made, but relying on an upside down turned car and mashed tatties and dodgy miniatures spoils the story. As if aliens are going to travel all this way after kidnapping pilots and sailors just to have a jam session on top of a mountain with a hippy scientist and his organ. Like Jean Michel Jarre and ET having a duet. Its silly. Aliens also are supposed to be green and not like the ones here. Aliens are hardly going to visit us if this is what we think of them. Unless they are the For Mash Get Smash aliens which is where the mashed potato could actually mean something.

Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £7.58
I don't actually dislike 'Invasion: Earth', and that is basically because it imitates everything SF that the BBC has ever done (Quatermass, Doctor Who....etc). No, it's big downfall for me, was the contents of a 'Radio Times' review of the serial at the time of it's airing, which basically rubbished every single piece of SF work the BBC had ever done in the past. Why I don't know, as this is a fairly good routine, with some ok CGI moments - but nothing spectacular. I notice that it is only available via Region 1, and has only thus so far attained a VHS release in the country of it's origin. Another let down is the ending which leaves a lot of loose ends dangling in the wind, but nonetheless still an ok little serial. One gets the feeling that a sequel was to ... Read More:
