Nice, thanks for the heads up. Hope they aren't censored beyond recognition to get on before the watershed hehe

The 2pm ones in particular are worth a watch. The Giant Claw special effects have to be seen to be believed.

Thing from another world . Really dated now due to that snappy bob hope film dialog.
Earth v the flying cups. Brilliant fun.

This Island Earth- done - what a great movie - and superb effects for 1955 (and the way its all thought out) - amazing - IMDB tells me they ran out of budget for the Mutant claw costume, and the actors were so unimpressed they thought it ruined the entire movie....

Journey to the far side of the sun - live action Gerry anderson - have only ever seen this once before - its pretty good - very 70's - well thought out - look and feel of his "supermarionation" tv series............
