I remember going to the Borough Hall on the Headland about 1978. Eddie And The Hotrods topped the Bill and were supported by Radio Stars and some other band called Squeeze!

One helluva good night that was, my ears didn't recover for four or five days.

what a truly disturbing and engrossing film that is :o The length of time it takes for him to be burnt to death still haunts me as much as bjornsson's miss at uddersfield !!!

I've only seen the terrible remake which put me off seeing the original, is it worth a watch?

Silly question. Nicholas Cage vs Edwardwardward is a bit like Bjornsson vs Messi. Even Cage himself thought his version was shite.
The original is a bit dated but I think that only serves to make it all the more sinister. Darkest film ever by a mile.

When did you ever see Christopher Lee looking as demented as this?
