Bought some new DVDs

Or rather some old ones. Quite a few ones, in fact, mostly travelling vids about places where I was (like Belgium) or where I'm planning to go (like Stockholm). But also some old movies I loved for some reason, although I still haven't succeeded to find a copy of "Ladyhawke"

In any case, I also purchased the old "Andromeda Strain" movie, based on the novel by Michael Chrichton, a book I useed to love. I also used to love the movie, decades ago, when I first saw it.

I was positively surprised that I found the movie every bit as good and exciting as at the firs time.

Oops, I got confused and thought you'd bought "Brothers Grimm." That'll teach me not to read and reply to things when I'm tired. But I still wouldn't recommend it.

I would recommend "Blood and Chocolate." It's a pretty good werewolf movie. My biggest issue with it was that it was nothing like the book. The characters had the same names but that was it. They changed everything else but for anyone who hasn't read the book, that won't matter.

Well, since I never heard of the book, I might enjoy it. Of course, as my luck usually is, all copies would be probably sold when I get back, now that I've decided to buy it. That happened before.
