They're one of my favourite bands of all time, and I've seen them at the Birmingham NEC in 1989 to the backdrops of Derek Jarman, and in 1999 at the Manchester MEN Arena with a less flamboyant show.

Today, DVDfever.co.uk reviewer Elly Roberts takes a look at their 1991 Performance including a number of tracks from their classic 1990 album, Behaviour.

Highlander 2 re-born on Region 1 DVD...

The studio version of this movie was one I quite enjoyed, but not quite what the director and crew wanted. After 2001's re-cut "Renegade Version", this one expands on that with improved special FX all over, showing to the likes of George Lucas that you really can improve on an original.
