13:00pm The Gift Horse (PG) 1952
Seafaring adventure, which sees Navy captain Trevor Howard reluctantly taking charge of an old US destroyer during World War Two. His attempts to take command of the vessel and her crew prove problematic when hostility erupts, though the prospect of facing the mighty German force brings much-needed unity. Richard Attenborough, Bernard Lee, Sonny Tufts and James Donald also number among the cast
14:55pm Apache (U) 1954
Apache warrior Burt Lancaster vows to fight for his people's rights even after they've agreed a treaty with the American army — and wages a one-man war against his enemies. Striking Western, boosted by Lancaster's excellent lead performance, also starring Jean Peters, Charles Bronson, John McIntire and John Dehner
16:45pm The Battle of the River Plate (U) 1956
World War Two adventure about the British Navy's pursuit and eventual cornering of enemy battleship the Graf Spee in Montevideo harbour, where German commanding officer Peter Finch is faced with an impossible dilemma. Starring John Gregson, Anthony Quayle, Bernard Lee and Jack Gwillim. Finch pulls off something of a coup by managing to portray a Nazi officer as a sympathetic and even noble figure at a time when emotions were still running high where the conflict was concerned
19:00pm The Story of Hallam Foe Behind the scenes on the new film about a young man obsessed with his mother's death. Featuring interviews with stars Jamie Bell and Sophia Myles, and director David MacKenzie
19:15pm Bugsy Malone (U) 1976
Director Alan Parker's much-loved slapstick musical spoof, featuring a cast composed entirely of children and following a war between rival gangsters in Twenties New York. When a slick mobster acquires devastating new weapons, his arch rival realises he has to get his hands on some if he's to avoid having his business wiped out, and enlists the aid of a small-time chancer to steal them. Starring Scott Baio, Florrie Dugger and John Cassisi, with Jodie Foster on fine form in an acclaimed early appearance
21:00pm To Die For (15) 1995
Stars Nicole Kidman as an ambitious small town woman with a lifelong obsession of becoming a TV star. A job at a local TV station seems like the first step on her journey to the top, but when her husband announces his desire to start a family, she realises he has to go so she can pursue her dream and persuades her dim-witted teenage lover into murdering him. Also starring Matt Dillon and Joaquin Phoenix
23:00pm Jeepers Creepers II (15) 2003
Horror sequel carrying on where the first entry left off, following the sinister Creeper as he continues his murderous activities, determined to sate his bloodthirsty appetite before he goes to sleep for another 23 years — and a coachload of squealing teenagers looks like the perfect place to start. It may provide more gruesome scares, but this inferior and seemingly tongue-in-cheek follow-up lacks the nervy tension of the original. Ray Wise, Jonathan Breck, Garikayi Mutambirwa and Eric Nenninger star
01:00am Night Watch (15) 2004
Two factions of mystical creatures living secretly among humans have maintained an uneasy truce for hundreds of years, each group using teams of agents to spy on the other. However, a young boy has the ability to bring their ancient conflict to a decisive conclusion, and both sides are determined to make sure he chooses to join them. Russian horror, starring Konstantin Khabensky, Vladimir Menshov and Valery Zolotukhin
