Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense

A short-lived anthology television series from Hammer Studios. Though similar in format to the 1980 series Hammer House of Horror, the Mystery and Suspense series had feature-length episodes, usually running around 70 minutes without commercials. Co-produced by Hammer Studios with 20th Century Fox Television, it is known in the United States as Fox Mystery Theater. Unlike 1980's Hammer House of Horror, all episodes feature American actors as either the leads or in key roles. It first broadcast in the UK on ITV in 1984, though was not simulcast and was shown in different timeslots throughout the various regions.

Manuel on the Island of Wonders

This three part French TV serial for children (alternate versions exist as a feature, Manoel’s Destinies, and a 4 part Portuguese TV serial, Adventure in Madeira) is the favourite of many devotees of Raúl Ruiz. This is because it ties the enchantment and mystery of Lewis Carroll, Carlo Collodi and the Brothers Grimm to the filmmaker’s experiments with narrative strategies and what he calls the pentaludic model of storytelling (where characters are thrown dice-like into combinations and situations governed by the play of Chance and Destiny).

Kadota, a veteran tour escort working for the travel agency that organised a ‘25-day all-female tour of Europe’, sets off from Japan alongside Hijikata, who has been handpicked as the tour guide following a forceful recommendation from Egi, a travel journalist popular with wealthy ladies. Amidst a tangled web of rivalry and jealousy amongst the participants, and with the future of the tour looking uncertain, the group encounters a series of strange incidents—including a theft—at their refuelling stop in Anchorage and their first sightseeing destination, Copenhagen.
