Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.83
In the opening episode of the third season, Divy Lovejoy find in all sorts of complications. When we last saw him, he had left everyone square money-wise, and was off for a much needed vacation. Now he is broke. All the money gone for various reasons and he is house-sitting for a sleaze Freddie the Phone. He quickly gathers Lady Jane, Tink and Eric back and is ready for action. Only Lady Jane has company, a old school chum, Victoria (Joanna Lumley). She is a widow of a South American political. Jane get him involved in brokering a deal for an ancient Inca gold ring for Victoria. For safe keeping, Eric convinces Lovejoy to use a new safe that works on eye identification instead of combination. Lovejoy sets up the deal, but find out there are some very nasty people after ...

The seasons of Lovejoy need to be in DVD format. I can't bring myself to buy a VHS tape

3.The Best of Lovejoy Mysteries: Scotch on the Rocks starring: Ian McShane directed by: Ian McShane, Peter Barber-Fleming, William Brayne, John Crome, Gordon Flemyng July 25, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.88
This episode finds Lovejoy at odds with his grown daughter. To make up for not being the best of absentee fathers while Victoria was growing up, Lovejoy creates a London showroom for his antiques and set daughter up in the showroom as helper and a place for her to live. Victoria wants a real job and to own her own apartment, which sets daughter and father on collision course. Further complicating matters, Victoria discovers a very rare and unusual Scottish claymore, which she puts up on the sly at an auction and Lovejoy buys not knowing his daughter is the seller! 18th-century Scottish commemorative sword draws the interest of a Scot named Kinloch (Edward Hardwicke) who offers him more than double the value. Instead of taking the officer, Lovejoy -ever ready to turn a sale ... Read More

4.Red Sun Rising starring: Don 'The Dragon' Wilson, Terry Farrell, Mako, Michael Ironside, Soon-Tek Oh directed by: Francis Megahy May 13, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.85
Red Sun Rising looks good to the eye compared to most films that Don Wilson is in - like Ring of Fire and Bloodfist. The action is entertaining in Red Sun Rising and the mixed cast is recognizable, but the story and script were just not all that interesting. This is an average martial arts film in the end, where the most fun lies in several matchups of Wilson against James Lew (Perfect Weapon, Showdown, Timecop). In Japan, Thomas Hoshino's (Wilson) partner is killed by the Yakuza and their deadliest killer, (James Lew) who kills with a method known as the death touch. The Yakuza gang escapes to L.A., where they and a system of corrupt police trigger a war between opposing gangs throughout the city. Hoshino travels to L.A. to track down the Yakuza, but has to make peace with his new ... Read More

5.The Best of the Lovejoy Mysteries - The Ring starring: Ian McShane directed by: Ian McShane, Peter Barber-Fleming, William Brayne, John Crome, Gordon Flemyng July 25, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.00
McShane took Jonathan Gash's books are made Lovejoy his own, a kinder, gentler character as it were. The Ring is one of the best episode of the series. This picks up after Lovejoy is released from Jail (a set up) but he served time anyway with a roomie - a biker named Mavis. Lady Jane, Tink and Eric are concerned because Lovejoy seems rather depressed and not accepting help from them. He goes to an auction and find a series of watercolour in the cottage style. He decides if he can get one sold at a high price he can sell all 22 paintings so he resorts to his old shifty ways to bump the bidding. He goes to his old Ring - partners that conspire to drive up the price. Only one duffer takes a powder at the last instant leaving Lovejoy in the lurch. So he recruits Lady Jane without her ...

6.Disappearance of Kevin Johnson starring: Pierce Brosnan, James Coburn, Dudley Moore, Alexander Folk, Bridget Baiss directed by: Francis Megahy April 06, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.59
Interesting technique - a mystery wrapped in a documentary-style presentation. So real-sounding that you want to know more and find yourself becoming more engrossed as details are progressively revealed. The climax plays Hollywood at their own game. Perhaps a little tame at the end but full marks for innovation! I've seen it long time ago and I had to see it again. Only the VHS was available on the market in the DVD WORLD :). I digitized and will be in my good movie collection. Must see for filmmakers.

8.Hammer House of Horror - Complete Set starring: Nicholas Ball, Rachel Davies, Brian Croucher, Patricia Maynard, Milton Johns directed by: Alan Gibson, Francis Megahy, Tom Clegg August 28, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $69.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $66.45 You Save: $3.50 ( 5%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $14.99
Having become obsessed with Hammer's library over the last few years, I simply had to have this set as a completist. While there are no special features, the episodes themselves are generally at above average quality for a horror anthology (especially compared to more recent anthologies Masters of Horror and Nightmares and Dreamscapes). Many episodes take on a twilight zone approach where once you know what is going on you are impressed with the idea, but not much else, as many are predictable by today's standards. But don't let the first disc fool you, production value and substance soon picks up. While never on par with some of Hammer's classics, House of Horror provides a quick dose of Hammer Horror. There are a couple of stand outs... 'Growing Pains' and ... Read More
