We’ve long cast an appreciative eye over Belstaff’s contribution to cinema, the cooler-then-cool brand seemingly always responsible for the best jackets. Often leading us to think that if it’s a good-looking jacket, chances are it’s by Belstaff. Not that they limit themselves to only outerwear, as if you take a good look at 2007’s post-apocalyptic sci-fi film, I Am Legend...

Halloween is approaching, and one of the things I like to do around Halloween is watch Vincent Price. As it happens, Hulu.com has some Vincent Price movies available online for free, and there are three you should see if you haven't. (1) The Last Man on Earth . This movie stands up remarkably well, due in part to Price's excellent acting and to the understated and quiet way in which it goes about its...

Taking a step back...

The Last Man on Earth It's going to be impossible to talk about this movie without talking about two related things. If you're not aware, this movie is based off the book I Am Legend by Richard Matheson which itself was adapted again (sort of) here recently in 2007 starring Will Smith (never seen the Charlton Heston remake The Omega Man). Once again, to get my biases out of the way, while I've never...

The electricity black out really made many areas look like a ghost town. Scary to drive around in darkness. The kids were feeling restless and not sure what to do, apart from playing with candles and chatting away. To avoid the heat at home and to kill the time while waiting for Mr Karan to restore the electricity, I decided to take the family for a drive around and shoot some photos. Peek-a-boo! It's...
