An Adventure In Time and Space

was pretty fucking amazing, actually...

Sabotage trailer

Ooh, this looks fun - Arnie does a Vic Mackey, but with more action. The writer and director credits are promising too.

JFK

I normally would watch Oliver Stone's JFK on a day like this... But it's too fucking long, so instead I'm watching the extended Red Dwarf episode Tikka To Ride.

Book log #19 - The Sleep Room

Finished The Sleep Room, by FR Tallis. Pretty decent evocation of spookiness at a remote 1950s hospital. The writing style drips with 50s British reserve, and overall comes over as having a real vibe of the TV adaptations of MR James stories - Tallis admits the writer's influence in the interview at the back, but IMO it's definitely more evocative of the landscapes portrayed in the classic BBC versions - especially the bleak opening scenes of Peter Vaughan on his bike in the TV version of A Warning To The Curious.

On the downside, the main character turns out to be an arsehole of sorts, and there's a spectacularly predictible epilogue. My advice is to read this cos it's generally wonderful, but absolutely definitely skip the epilogue letter.

9/10
