Advantages: A suspenseful first act Disadvantages: The rest of the film, and Alice Krige
Based on Stephen Kings novel of the same name, Sleepwalkers is the gory story of a mother and son who feed on human blood to keep them alive. When they move to a new town after wreaking havoc in Ohio, Charles Brady has to search out a virgin to feed his mother as she verges on starvation. That virgin comes in the form of resourceful town beauty Tanya, who falls for Charles charms almost immediately. The murderous pair seem virtually fearless until it is revealed that they actually fear cats. Charles tries to lure Tanya to their house so that his mother can feed on her, but he seems to be falling for her at the same time. Its left to the feline saviours and a few rather dim cops to save Tanya and ultimately the town from the blood sucking sleepwalkers.

Advantages: Lots to see and do, mostly for free. A little bit of the rain forest just hours from Sydney Disadvantages: Public transport links could be better
Though I am usually loathe to pay someone else to do for me what I could feasibly do for myself, there are some exceptions to this, most notably when paying someone costs very little more money overall and saves me a considerable amount of time. I'm at the beginning of a 4 month trip to Australia, 3 months of which will be spent working in Sydney, so technically I could have sorted out our trip to the Blue Mountains myself. However a quick glance at google told me lots of organisations had already done the leg work and were offering organised tours to the region so I pictured myself spending my spare time on the beach rather than planning a trip and booked us on one of these.
The Blue Mountains are in New South Wales, about an hour and a half driving from Sydney or a couple of hours by train. The main tourism site, http ...
