    Almost 30 yrs ago I bought this book with a few others to read on my holiday that was coming up. It was a really weird, spooky story, but interesting too. I later lent it to a mate to take on his hols and thought no more about it..,

    The book was by a guy called Thomas Harris, an author I’d never heard of. A couple of years later it showed up as a major movie - it’s title was the same as the book - The Silence Of The Lambs!

    2 books on the go usually, one in the car incase I am waiting for someone and I hate waiting and other at home. Currently reading a book called The first 15 lives of Harry August about a man who keeps on getting re incarnated, good read

    I disagree. Mario Puzo was a great writer. Although this was one rare instance where the film was every bit as good as the book - it was still a great book.

    Thanks, just googled that. Looks interesting, might try it.

    Just started Herzog by Saul Bellow - so far, a middle aged Jewish New Yorker is having a nervous breakdown following his 2nd divorce. And it's very funny.

    Jaws was a great read and the film is a legend. The Amityville Horror was a page turner but the film was ****e.

    Books were better but horror wrongly are never rated as much as others.

    I wouldn't know about horror books, I haven't read many - though I did enjoy Bram Stoker's Dracula.

    There've been some brilliant horror movies though. The Exorcist remains one of the best films of it's time imo.

    Classic that one and Blatty’s book was equally as good.

    The original one was scary as **** too. There's been a remake but I still say original was scarier

    Yeah scared the ****ing bejesus out of me that. Was probably only about 11 when I first saw it too.

    Also, although fairly tame by today's standards, Poltergeist ****ing **** me up proper when I was a lad.

    No haven't seen it. I used to watch loads of horror films and then when I was about 16 I started taking loads of LSD and just decided that I didn't need any of that horror stuff in my head anymore. Started dropping tabs and going to the theatre instead <laugh>
