More Miyazaki magic (the creator of Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and The Castle In The Sky) at last available for us Brits to indulge in.

Damien, Jason and Jessie have matured visibly in prison, with Damien perha find out more...

TIn 1993 the naked and mutilated bodies of three 8-year-old boys where found in a shallow creek near the sleepy redneck Arkansas town of Robin Hood Hills. The ensuing police investigation soon focused on three local teens who dressed in black, had vaguely non-Christian beliefs and enjoyed heavy metal music.
