...Well what can I say about this one - its one of my all-time favourites that I never fail to recommend ! A recent conversation with some work colleagues revealed 3 out of 10 of them had never seen it - I was gob-smacked !!!!

Then came the 30thAnniversary commemorative edition collection.
At first a friend at work loaned me one of the discs to watch. It wasnt any of the films but instead on this disc were scenes that would change my opinion of "Game of Death" forever as i can now never...
