Movies:
Love Oriental cinema, in fact anything by Takashi Miike, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Sabu, Tsui Hark, Beat Takashi, Katsuhiro Otomo, Sammo Hung, Shaw Brothers, Ringo Lam etc. Also have a fondness for 70's horror, sci-fi and exploitation as I prefer to watch people being terrorised in bell bottoms rather than Gucci, (It doesn't mean I am a church burning satanist). Im also a fan of any film that is unintentionally funny (like Best of the Best, Death Wish 3). Favourite other directors include Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento, Umberto Lenzi, pre- Vampires John Carpenter, Stan Kubrick, George A Romero etc.Love manga and anime, in fact animation in general. Would rather watch cartoons than real people any day.
Television:
Mainly repeats of old sit-coms. Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, Porridge etc. Not much new TV apart from fly on the wall programs about strange and disturbed people. Oh aye, The Simpsons, South Park and Shin Chan go without saying.
Books:
A Clockwork Orange.
I Am Legend.
Battle Royale.
Heroes:
Kraftwerk, Ulysses 31 and Beat Takashi.
