Paramount 19:00 Strictly Ballroom

Just started on Horror
19:55 Horror +1 - The Devil Rides Out
Satanic scares from Hammer starring Christopher Lee. Two men discover that their deceased friend's son is involved in the occult and must battle the evil forces of darkness to save him. (1968) Classic Hammer.

21:00 Sony Action - Seraphim Falls
At the end of the (American) Civil War, a colonel hunts down a man with whom he had a grudge. Liam Neeson and Pierce Brosnan star.

23:40 Spike - John Carpenter's: Ghosts of Mars
Guilty pleasure. YMMV

2340 Forces TV - V: The Original Miniseries , not a film but they are showing both parts back to back. (1983)

So nothing much

Capt'n Midnight · 20-10-2019 7:38pm

Monday

12:30 Film 4 - Support Your Local Sheriff! 1969 Western spoof staring James Garner. It's worth watching for Jack Elam alone.

14:30 Talking Pictures - The Devil & Daniel Webster 1941 haven't heard of it and don't like looking up spoilers , has good ratings though.

21:00 Film 4 - Terminator Genisys - with the Mother of Dragons
22:10 ITV4 - Terminator 2: Judgment Day - this is the better one of these two

22:00 Sony Action - Starship Troopers 3
Not a patch on the original but way better than the second one.

Nice one, Corkie

I also spotted a classic disaster film shown in an odd slot:

The Poseidon Adventure (1972) on RTE2 on Saturday at 11.40am (or possibly later or not at all if the Rugby World Cup final goes to extra time)

It starts off well but isn't worth watching once Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson head off leaving the other guys.

This one might be a better bet

Sunday
21:00 RTE2 The Nice Guys

Ghostbusters is a remake. And like most remakes isn't anywhere as good as the original.

Not much on this week. Nothing to highly recommend but these might be worth checking.

23:05 5spike Rescue Dawn

Sunday
14:15 Paramount Paper Moon

22:00 TalkingPics TV Mackenna's Gold , it's a western

Wednesday
15:00 Film 4 Robinson Crusoe on Mars . very dated sci-fi

Thursday
15:10 Film 4 Sherlock Holmes: Terror by Night. not great but Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce make a great duo.

18:15 Sony Seven Years In Tibet. Brad Pitt is a Nazi in Tibet.

Friday
01:50 Film 4 Ivan's Childhood In Russian/subs (1962)

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Film 4 and +1

Wed 13 Nov 2019 00:40 GMT

Mon 18 Nov 2019 01:10 GMT , 02:10 GMT

There were three movies about Abraham Lincoln released in 2012
This one wasn't directed by Steven Spielberg and wasn't nominated for 12 Oscars.

But if you really want to know what they won't tell you in the official histories this is the film to watch.

Harry Palmr · 20-11-2019 11:40pm

Ronin is on ITV4 right now so too late for today but it'll surely be on again very soon if it's on now.
