Wow. I am a very big SF geek indeed.

Tried to watch Alphaville a long time ago, but it was late at night, and it didn't really grab me in the first few minutes, so I turned over. Must catch Ghost in the Shell sometime, and I guess 28 Days Later. Can't say the original Flash Gordons interest me that much, but La Voyage Dans La Lune should be worth catching if the opportunity arises. Never heard of The Damned before; might keep an eye open for that.
