In a recent post on the french language main site, some farewells to James ARNESS and Dana WYNTER, two famous faces of fifties S-F movies, another about the most famous Hammer's scenarist Jimmy SANGSTER, who wrote some frightening stories for english B-movies, and a tribute to Michael McCRACKEN, a monster maker from cinema and television. This latest evokes the carreer of his son, his relative Jeff KENNEMORE, and his grand son Neal KENNEMORE.

Complete different thing, the latest post talks about the Plesiosaurs, big extinct sea reptiles from Dinosaurs' time - including some help for the latest believers who always think that someones are living in the Loch Ness!..
