Between Heaven And Hell - Ever Since

Advantages: Amazingly funny
Disadvantages: None

...The Simpsons - Classics - Heaven and Hell is yet another of the 'classics' series of Simpsons DVD's. There are four episodes included here, each having something to do with heaven and the other place. They are "Bart Sells His Soul", "In Marge We Trust", "Treehouse Of Horror IV" and "Homer The Heretic". In "Bart Sells His Soul", Bart sells his soul to Milhouse for 5 dollars after proclaiming they don't exist. He soon regrets the sale though, as his dog is very edgy towards him, automatic doors don't open for him anymore and Marge feel like he is missing something. In the end he gets it back from an unlikely source. A Bart-centric episode, it touches on what a soul is and how someone can possess such a thing. The Simpsons writers are excellent at trying to explain these things in a brilliantly comic way. "In Marge We Trust" has Marge... Read review

Advantages: Classic Clarkson Humor, Can be picked up cheap
Disadvantages: Gets Repetitive, Same as previous Clarkson DVDs

...Being a big fan of Top Gear, and in particular Jeremy Clarkson, I could not resist buying this DVD when I saw it cheap. Although Clarksons typical humour is definately present, which is good, I was quite disappointed with this DVD, which seems a bit rushed. OVERVIEW The main idea behind this DVD is that the so called cars of 'heaven' are driven round the track by Clarkson, as he talks breifly about their speed, handling etc, whilst the cars of 'hell' are demolished, using various methods of destruction. The main trouble is that the DVD contains 20 features, and is only 70 minutes long. This means that the mini 'reviews' of the good cars do not last long at all, and so they are not very interesting, as there is only so much you can do with a car in 3 minutes. As for the cars of hell, once you have seen one or two cars be blown... Read review

Advantages: A must for fans
Disadvantages: Not a lot that is new here...

...? Something that he knows he?s never read? The first page says beware you?ve found the answer? The next one says I wish that you were dead?? Thudding drums and the metal begins? This a definate Sabbath number ? a song that would not seem out of place on the actual 1980 Heaven Hell album, wedged between Die Young and Neon Knights? The feeling, the emotions are strong here and the dark passage we are being led along seems as though it might come to an end after all? Take me back, I must have the Bible Black? It is a hard one to follow and ?Double the Pain? struggles a bit. A fuzzy bass line gives into heavy guitars and we are off. It is all doom and gloom again, and we are lost along that passage again. Yet there is an air of optimism as we are guided through. More slow metal with ?Rock and Roll Angel? and ?The Turn of the Screw? These are... Read review
