This is one I never heard of until I bought it. I figured the overview sounded good and it was cheap. I am not disappointed I got it... but it really pretty much an average haunted house flick. It is a decent story and some good effects. I think if they would have polidshed it up just a little more they would really have something. Worth a watch... just don't expect too much.

I remember watching this one back in the '80s... and enjoying it well enough. But I haven't watched it since until now. It is still a decently fun film. though my memory of it was better then it actually was. The film definitely has an '80s feel to it. So it is probably a little dated... but I still found it worth the time put in to watch it. I both the 2 disc blu-ray box set with this and the sequel Blues Brothers 2000. I don't ever remember seeing the sequel but it has my curiosity piqued as it has John Goodman in it.

My PILOT Marathon, a review by Rich

RAY MEARS WILD FOOD - SERIES 1 - EPISODE 1 AUSTRALIA



Australia: Ray travels to the other side of the planet to hear from Australian Aboriginals about what food means to a hunter-gatherer and the role it plays in their culture as well as their society.

I fancied a change from the typical fare, so dipped into a couple of documentary series around cooking/nature. Not sure what it is about survival programmes and how to live off the land, but with Ray Mears the series are always fascinating and enlightening. This original episode from Wild Food is no exception, and was totally absorbing, following the traditional methods of Australian Aboriginees and their diets and hunting/gathering in the wild.
