Advantages: Some decent moments, somehow kept me watching until the end Disadvantages: Mostly really bad across the board
This is a DVD I picked up for £1 a couple of years ago. I suppose the price should have told me something, but I gave it a shot, hoping to have found a bit of a gem.
Face of Terror follows Nick Harper as he tries to find his missing sister in Barcelona.

Advantages: Decent session ale Disadvantages: Not to complex

- Hmm, that does sound quite frightening.
Or even the news that 70's glam-rock legends, the Bay City Rollers are reforming?

Nah. The fact that this is a beer review should've given you some sort of clue as to the source of the title.
Still not worked it out? My, you're slow. It's a beer. A beer I came across (figuratively speaking) last Friday evening.
You know me. I find a beer I've never seen before and it's down my neck before the bartender has a chance to check whether the cash I just gave him is fake or not.
