I am so glad I've got FilmFour who are showing A Feast at Midnight on 15/11.
I don't think I've ever seen it, I can't really remember every film I watched when I was younger!
What are people's opinions on this film?
Hmm, talking of feasts, I'm starting to get hungry...

A brilliant film, one of Mr Lee's favourite.

A Feast At Midnight is a gem of a film . I watched it recently for the first time in years and thought it was one of the best non genre roles for Christopher Lee.......highly recommended .

Since, you live in the UK, Michelle. This movie is available on vhs in the UK.
It shouldn't cost that much.
Great movie indeed. :)

You will love this film. I have a copy which I see at least every couple of months. It is a very sweet and gentle film, very funny and very well acted.

The bad news is Jacob, I only buy DVD's now. In fact, I think I'm turning into a DVD addict!!
I'm going to have to record it off the TV anyway because it's on before I get home from work. So technically I will have it on VHS.
Having said that, it is very likely that the VHS player may force the DVD player into a couple of weeks of non-use!!
That is until I get the AOTC DVD.

You never know Old Souly, I might just write a review.
(Warning: It will probably be longer than longer than long, as nearly everything I write is an epic!)

A review, that would be very nice.
I love reading them, as well as writing them. A fresh idea from some new is always welcomed.

"A Feast At Midnight" was the most recent addition to my Christopher Lee collection. I won it in an ebay auction, but unfortunately I didn't pay close enough attention to what I was bidding on, so I ended up with a PAL tape.
So far I have only been able to see it once, because a friend of mine had access to a VCR that would play it, but I don't regret the purchase. It is a great movie, and it was even better than I expected it to be.
I don't think I'll ever be able to forget the word "pawang" as long as I live. That had me laughing so hard. I suppose it is the British equivalent of "schwing!"

Gotta say that "Feast at Midnight" is one of my favourite C.L. films. I watched it completely by accident on sky a couple of years ago. Was delighted to see C.L. doing a friendly bit of comedy. He suits it well (as he does everything). Particularly like the Jurassic Park "Raptor" sequence with the kitchen.

It was soooo funny!!! :1roll:
(but it took some time to actually see it!)
To cut a long story short, DISASTER with the video recorder!
Other Half, who I trusted with the important task of setting
the timer, actually put it on the wrong channel! Aaarrgh!!
I can tell you, murder was nearly committed in the house when all I got was a blank screen!!
So, I had to go against my DVD addiction and order it on VHS. I thought it would take ages, but I got it yesterday. It was worth it!
Actually thinking about it is making me smile! It was the most fantastic British comedy film I have seen in ages and Mr Lee sending up his image was priceless!
And the fact that I am very partial to foods of the sweet variety it had me raiding the biscuit tin (huge home made chocolate biscuits are the best!) Not very good for the diet, but I don't care!
I will have to watch it a few more times before I contemplate a review, but I think there is one waiting to spring forth from the recesses of my brain somewhere.
The worrying thing was that I 'got' all the innuendo's, which just highlights the type of mind that I have. *chuckle* *chuckle*
