The Goonies are a bunch of misfit kids who take on some greedy
property developers and try to save their neighbourbood by finding
the lost treasure map of a 17th century pirate.
Box set containing all four films from the popular 'Lethal Weapon'
series. In 'Lethal Weapon' (1987), Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover) is
a family man cop who is about to turn fifty. Cautious by nature, he
is less than happy to be paired with Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) when
he is assigned to investigate Californian drug baron 'The General'
(Mitchell Ryan). Following the death of his wife, Riggs has become
a manic loner who no longer cares whether he lives or dies - an
approach which causes more than a few problems as he and Murtaugh
attempt to bring the General to justice. In 'Lethal Weapon 2'
(1989), Riggs (Gibson) and his partner Murtaugh (Glover) once again
tackle the evils of drug smuggling, this time coming up against a
South African syndicate whose kingpins are protected by diplomatic
immunity. In 'Lethal Weapon 3' (1992), Detectives Murtaugh (Glover)
and Riggs (Gibson) are both demoted after triggering a car bomb in
a multi-storey car park, but they are soon reinstated after
uncovering a network - run by an ex-cop - which is smuggling
weapons out of a police ammunition dump. Finally, in 'Lethal Weapon
4' (1998), mismatched cops Riggs (Gibson) and Murtaugh (Glover)
team up for a fourth time to foil an immigrant smuggling racket,
run by a ruthless Asian Triad leader (Jet Li). Joe Pesci also
returns as Leo Getz, the cops' cowardly informant whilst Rene Russo
leavens the boys with toys atmosphere as risk-taking detective
Lorna Cole.

US Ambassador Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) is persuaded to
substitute a newborn baby whose mother has died in childbirth for
his own stillborn son. By the age of five the child, Damien, seems
to be exerting a malevolent influence on the Thorn household,
suffering a violent fit when he is taken to church and causing his
nanny to hang herself. Thorn searches for an answer to his son's
behaviour and meets maverick priest Father Brennan (Patrick
Troughton), who tries to convince him that Damien is in fact the
Antichrist and must be stopped at all costs. The Ambassador at
first dismisses this as the crazy rantings of a religious maniac,
but subsequent events suggest that maybe the priest had a point.
Updated version of the Dickens' classic with Bill Murray as Frank,
a network TV president and modern day Scrooge who is always looking
out for number one. One night, as Christmas approaches, he is
visited by three zany ghosts including ex-New York Doll David
Johansen as the Ghost of Christmas Past and Carol Kane as a violent
Ghost of Christmas Present; whilst jazz great Miles Davis appears
in a cameo role as a street musician.
Triple bill featuring the first three 'Omen' films. The saga begins
with 'The Omen' (1976), when US Ambassador Robert Thorn (Gregory
Peck) is persuaded to substitute a newborn baby, whose mother has
died in childbirth, for his own stillborn son. By the age of five,
the child, Damien (Harvey Stephens), seems to be exerting a
malevolent influence on the Thorn household, suffering a violent
fit when he is taken to church and causing his nanny to hang
herself. Thorn searches for an answer to his son's behaviour and
meets maverick priest Father Brennan (Patrick Troughton), who tries
to convince him that Damien is in fact the Antichrist and must be
stopped at all costs. The Ambassador at first dismisses this as the
crazy rantings of a religious maniac, but subsequent events suggest
that maybe the priest had a point. The second film, 'Damien - Omen
2' (1978), picks up events a few years later, with the now-orphaned
Damien (Jonathan Scott-Taylor) turning 13 and living with his
adoring aunt and uncle. Aunt Marion (Lee Grant) is the first to
suspect there is more to the young devil than adolescent angst,
leading to her swift dispatch by a killer raven. As for Damien, he
is making his mark at military school, and is dismayed to discover
his true demonic identity - but not for long. The third film, 'Omen
3 - The Final Conflict' (1981), finds Damien (Sam Neill) all grown
up and heading a multinational company. He is about to be appointed
US Ambassador to England, a position which will enable him to take
over the world and thus fulfil the terrible forecasts of scripture.
But there is opposition in the form of a bunch of monks with sacred
daggers who will do everything necessary to prevent Satan's
enthronement.

Phillipe Gaston is helped by Etienne Navarre (Rutger Hauer), a
mysterious knight who carries a precious hawk on his arm and is
also pursued by the soldiers of Aquila. Two years ago, Navarre and

day, leaving them only a few brief moments to spend together at
dawn and sunset. Now, Navarre tries to persuade Phillipe to help
him and Isabeau re-enter the city and confront the evil Bishop who,
out of his lust for Isabeau, cast the jealous spell which keeps the
two lovers apart. Phillipe agrees, but the path to the Bishop is a
heavily guarded one, and it will take great courage to follow this
