THE ADVENTURES OF HUCK FINN (1993): Mark Twain's classic family yarn, starring Elijah Wood (currently filming Lord of the Rings) as the mischievous youngster who follows the Mississippi in search of adventure, befriend­ ing a runaway slave along the way.

In this delightfully creepy hor­ ror comedy, Michael J Fox plays ghostbuster Frank Ban­ nister, a down at heel psychic investigator in league with a trio of spooks. When a series of strange homicides plague a small town, Bannister finds himself in a struggle with death itself. (GRANADA, 11.35pm) THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (1974): Forget the hype surrounding this long-banned horror, it's actu­ ally a very claustrophobic thriller which turned director Tobe Hooper into a force to be reckoned with. The movie centres on a family of psycho­ pathic cannibals, including chain-saw-wielding maniac Leatherface, who dispatch a group of youngsters in various grisly ways. Gunnar Hansen stars.
