Yes, it is. When I said it "was one of the Quatermass films", I didn't mean
to give the impression that I didn't know which one it was. In the context
of the discussion, that info didn't seem relevant.

Yes, QUATERMASS AND THE PIT is the title of the original British serial,
as well as the title of the feature film. It was retitled for the US.

YES !  Finally, someone else who has seen "The Forbidden Zone".   I assume
you mean the movie with Herve Villachaize as an underworld king underneat the
LeBrea Tar Pits, that didn't spend too much on scenery.

It was great and the music is fantastic!  The soundtrack used to be available,
but I can't find it anymore.

So is this other movie EMPIRE OF THE SENSES any different from his previous 
release?

I've always had a sneaking suspicion that IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES was 
really just a snuff film promoted as ant art film to get by U.S. customs.
Anybody know anything one way or the other on this?

The whole basis of the Terminator series is that Skynet became "intelligent".
This means that a cpu has been developed with "intelligent" characteristics.
Notice the curiosity that the T-1000 displayed, particularly in the scene
where he imitated the stepmother. It was really fascinated about the process
of changing it's shape. So why couldn't it have picked up "evil" traits?

P.

P.S. Not a bad little movie either, DA. Pretty corny, but humourous and 
well made.

It's also got big guns and killer CDs - what more do you want?

I got to see Alien III a couple of weeks ago and was trying to remember any 
clues that something got aboard the rescue ship (I've only seen each of the 
films at the theatre).  I would be very interested to know if this was in 
the original release or added later.

That is _Lux aeterna_ by Gyo"rgy Ligeti.  There are no words, but 
I also find that there is an illusion of *almost* hearing words and
phrases.

In case anybody's interested (if not, go ahead and skip this), here
is an excerpt of a description of the piece:

       The parts of the sixteen solo voices, which enter un-
       synchronized and "always very softly", are so subtly
       interwoven in strict canonic writing that they form an
       impenetrable texture of sound with scarcely any per-
       ceptible momentum, but with constant changes of colour.
       _Lux aeterna_ reflects a soft light which seems to
       come from afar, both in time and space, and then to
       fade away again imperceptibly into the distance, with-
       out ever taking on concrete outlines or tangible
       reality.

Good point, John.  Remember when the T1000 is in the mental hospital, and
he kills the guard and assumes his form??  He didn't steal the guards
clothing, he just formed the body already clothed.  So I think it's safe
to assume that the 1000 never stole anybody's clothing.  He did ,however, need
to steal the radio, car, motorcycle, whathaveyou, to get around though, like
you said above.

	They have it at my local video rental dealer here in Seattle,

} As for Linda Hamilton's twin, they used her to play the T-1000 as Sarah.
} She went through the same building program as Hamilton.

But not nearly to the same degree. It's pretty obvious in that scene that
she's not quite as built up as Linda was.

}  Her name is Michelle Scarabelli, or Scarapelli. One of the two.

Neither of the two, actually. Michelle Scarabelli is not related to Linda
Hamilton at all. Hamilton's sister's name is Leslie Hamilton Gaerren (not
sure on the spelling of the last name) -- she's listed right in the end
credits, if you want to check -- and she's never appeared in anything
else, as she's not an actress. Her appearance in T2 was Linda's idea.
In the scene where there are two Sarahs, Cameron was going to do the
usual split screen effects, and Linda suggested that they use her sister.

} She's had a couple of appearances on The Next Generation.

Actually, I'm surprised that no one's mentioned someone else who was on
ST:TNG. There was an episode where the Enterprise meets up with Tasha
Yar's sister, played by a woman named Beth Touissant who has an uncanny
resemblence to Linda Hamilton. She also appeared in an episode of
NIGHTMARE CAFE.
