Well, after nobody even mentioned last week's banner, let's change it up a bit.

From the ridiculous to the sublime, this week we have Mr Teddy Bear (Mrs Gale's first foray and a theme that was misused in the film to boot!)

I wonder if the directors cut with footage restored, will ever see the light of day for a blu-ray release...with commentary ? 20 plus yrs on, it's amazing how this film gets slagged

I don't like the film, I found it incredibly dispiriting at the time but I'd certainly love to see the film in it's original edit (preferably with Michael Kamen's unused score).:)

Maybe with Warner Brothers getting a new CEO there's finally a glimmer of a chance.

If the Hidden Tiger proves to be no good, you would probably need to build a better mousetrap.

(Apologies for the delay, real life got in the way).

You may have noticed we've been alternating colour with black and white but this week we get both in a stunning shot of double Tara (making her debut in this series of banners) from Pandora, one of her best episodes and apparently Linda Thorson's personal favourite.
Why not head over to the reviews forum and post your thoughts on the episode?
