Sacred Flesh (DVD)

I Love The Stink of Flesh In The Morning

Advantages: Nathan is a bit of a hottie!
Disadvantages: But the film is a bit of a grottie!

dodgy, cheap horror movies were an exclusive product of the 1980s, you need to think again. They're still making them now and Stink of Flesh is a prime example. A bizarre combination of gory zombie movie and softcore porn flick, it seems that the film serves only one purpose and that is to shock. Shock tactics never did make a good movie. Stink of Flesh's first problem is the director's apparent lack of skill. The film feels as though it has been filmed by a group of amateur filmmaking buddies who borrowed a camera for the afternoon. The composure is very superficial - no style, artistry or flair, just point and click. This in turn means that there is absolutely no suspense whatsoever as the camera exposes every nasty little surprise looming, long before it hits any of the (allegedly) unsuspecting cast members. None of the locations add ...

Review of The Stink Of Flesh (DVD)

An album most Sacred

Advantages: Sting at his sultry best
Disadvantages: None

sings, but he is a very proficient musician, and is able to play, the mandolin, guitar, piano, bass guitar, saxophone, flute and oboe, and that is not all. Putting the differences with the other Police members behind them, Sting invited Andy Summers to guest star on his 1987 album release ?Nothing Like the sun? and both members have joined Sting on stage at various times through his solo career. October 2003 saw the release of Sting?s latest album ?Sacred Love?, which can be purchased from CD Wow for £8.99, or from play.com for £7.99. The opening track ?Inside? begins with an echoing noise, and sounds slightly Oriental, before the introduction of an acoustic guitar, and Sting?s vocals. A slow song, which has the riff from ?All the Young Dudes? sandwiched into the middle, explores Sting?s ideals of what goes on within the human ...

Review of Sacred Love - Sting

The Sacred Heart

Advantages: Interesting, views.
Disadvantages: Stairs, stairs and more stairs.

The Sacre-Couer or Sacred Heart is a huge Catholic church in the North of the city centre. It was started in 1873 as the Catholic church sought to atone for what they perceived as the crimes of the Commune, what better way to atone than by constructing a gigantic white-domed basilica? It has been designed in a Neo-Byzantine style by the architect responsible, Paul Abadie, and apparently was described as an 'abberration of taste' by a group of artists and intellectuals. Entry is free provided you don't take pictures, you remain silent and you dress decently (this means covering shoulders for the ladies). To get to the entry however, you will need to climb 237 steps. It is worth pausing to enjoy the view before going into the building, almost as high as the Eiffel Tower you get incredible views right across the city. There are also ...
