Off The Record...

Billy Idol

Rebel Yell (Expanded Edition)

The Expanded Edition of Rebel Yell features new packaging and artwork, 24-bit remastered sound by engineer Bob Norberg, carefully selected bonus tracks and liner notes by Billy himself. Also as an added bonus the CD will feature 5 previously unreleased bonus tracks, culled from the EMI vaults, including a session takes of Rebel Yell, Catch My Fall, Flesh For Fantasy and an original demo called Blue Highway.

 

At The Movies...

The Blair Witch Project

"On October 21, 1994, Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard, and Michael Williams hiked into the Black Hills Forest to shoot a documentary film on a local legend called The Blair Witch, and were never seen again. One year later, their footage was found." These are the opening lines of The Blair Witch Project. There are no credits, there is no flashback sequence, and there is no friendly narrator to guide you through this. The next 87 minutes is the three filmmakers' footage in chronological order, or so the audience is made to believe. In reality those 87 minutes are occupied with unique filmmaking and a beautiful script which amalgamates for one of the scariest and most intense films since Alfred Hitchcock gave us a reason to not shower in 1960.

 

On Video...

October Sky

Uplifting story about a young man who realizes his dream of breaking out of his goal-mining hometown by reaching for the sky with homemade rockets. Set against the dawn of the Space Race in 1957, this lively drama follows the real-life story of Homer Hickam (Jake Gyllenhaal) as he struggles against his coal-miner father's wishes and builds rockets in the hopes of winning first prize at the National Science Fair, eventually leading to a career at NASA.
