Death Defying Movie

Death Defying ActsOne can only wonder if Harry Houdini would recognize himself in the new film from Gillian Armstrong starring Guy Pierce and Catherine Zeta Jones. Having only opened in Australia to date, one must rely on such reviews as appear at ABC North Australia. According to the reviewer, "The two strands are melded together by a rather unbelievable romance plot. Zeta Jones and Pearce do have a chemistry together, that's not the problem. It's more to do with a script which seems to take Houdini for a love sick fool who's entranced in an instant by a woman who doesn't care for him until he performs some magic tricks, like making coins disappear and balancing off high buildings. It's all a little corny. And the sad thing is that there's the kernel of a very exciting story, or stories, buried within it."

Pamela Anderson Gets Burned

Numerous articles on the net are reporting that Pamela Anderson was injured while assisting Illusionist Hans Klok during a performance in Berlin. Pam said, "I got scorched and I think I may have thrown a rib out. There's one trick... where the spikes go through the box and it got really close and I ended up going backstage and going, 'Woo, that was close. ' " Pam and Klok worked together for much of 2007 until their Las Vegas show "The Beauty of Magic" was canceled in December.  One of the illusions from that show can be seen in the video below. READ:: Pamela Anderson Injured and Scorched while Assisting Hans Klok
