A really good movie. Before I watched it I was convinced it would be dull and boring - but I was wrong.

Think it may have been on itv4 so keep a watch on the schedule. There's a fair chance of it coming round again.

If you're interested 'Vault of Horror' is on film4 again tonight after airing on Monday and 'Vampire Circus' is on BBC2

It was on ITV1, i presume it will be repeated on one of the other ITV channels.

Murdering someone makes you a murderer. Your choice.

Capital punishment means the State makes us all murderers. No choice.

Capital punishment has been debated on this forum many times, but hearing the hangman say that in his personal opinion it never stopped anyone from commiting murder it was just revenge by the state sums it all up.
