Rolling Stones: Four Flicks (8 weeks unwatched)
Black Sunday (11 weeks unwatched)
The Blair Witch Project (119 weeks unwatched)

Gut: Lemme know what you think of Underworld.

This week/weekend I can't wait to get time to watch the long awaited DVD of "The Postman Always Rings Twice" (my online vote many months ago at TCM finally paid off) and the double feature of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" both released by Warner this week. I'll also watch more of the "Coupling Season 2" episodes off and on during the week and start into the new "Frasier Season 2" and "Cheers Season 2" sets.

I've heard that the restoration on "Postman Always Rings Twice" has some flaws, which I'm disappointed to find out, but I'll still like to watch it and see the bonus features. Looking forward to the commentary on Jekyll & Hyde, too; I saw the first half of this pre-code feature a while back, and I am anxious to see the whole film through and learn more about it.

thursday: man who knew too little - directors commentary track
Friday: S.W.A.T., the patriot or signs
Saturday: LOTR :Return of the king, undercover blues
