The Book Was Better Podcast Episode 90: Poltergeist (with guest host Courtney Coulson!)

This week we scare the crap out of ourselves by reading James Kahn's novelization of the Hooper/Spielberg attacked-by-a-toy-clown classic: Poltergeist! Luckily I'm joined by the intrepid - and virtually fearless - Courtney Coulson, who still, after all these years, is not afraid of no ghost. This film is a classic pants-pisser and yet, could the book actually be better than the movie? This one is going to shock you, folks!

Supanova Perth 2014 Review - Day 1





This weekend Supanova hit Perth with force and convention goers came out in droves despite the bad weather. There was plenty of cosplay, plenty to spend your money on and plenty of fun. Your Fruitless Pursuits Perth crew were there to check it out and report some of the highlights!

Follow me under the cut for a re-cap of Day 1 including Jamie Bamber (Battlestar Galactica, Hornblower, Law and Order UK), John Barrowman (Doctor Who, Torchwood, Arrow) and Katie Cassidy (Supernatural, Arrow).
