...Tang's new release, "The W," finds the group at its most focused. It's an unusual place for them to be. Wu-Tang revels in its own unpredictability, its own inscrutability and its own ungainly nature. Wu-Tang is a conglomeration of rappers that includes RZA (the mastermind and main producer), Method Man (the star MC), Masta Killa, U-God, Raekwon, Inspectah Deck, GZA, Ghostface Killah and Ol' Dirty Bastard. A tenth rapper, Cappadonna, is regarded as an honorary member. While other groups rage and split and fall apart when members look to release solo work, Wu-Tang...
...trio of no-budget wonders that belong in the video collection of any serious student of outré cinema. "The Astro Zombies" (1968), coscripted by "M*A*S*H"'s Wayne Rogers, stars John Carradine a - natch - a mad scientist, and Tura Satana as a dragon lady criminal mastermind. Tura is one of many individuals looking to snatch Carradine's secret of bringing cadavers back to life with solar energy (don't ask).

No one knew which of his nighttime hideouts he was holed...

...soccer's world governing body, FIFA, had backed South Africa's bid on the grounds that it was time to give the African continent a first opportunity to host the world's biggest sporting event, Mandela's men reckoned without the cunning of Franz Beckenbauer, legendary German playmaker and mastermind of its World Cup bid. Having artfully disposed of England's challenge on the grounds of its hooligan problem (even though his own legions give as good as they get when they clash with the Brits), Beckenbauer then worked the weaknesses in his key adversary's lineup. Although South Africa...
