There’s nothing quite as nerve-wracking as playing pass the parcel with a time-bomb or quite as much fun. Shockball is basically catch for the brave and the hard. This red metal-studded ball contains a hidden wickedness – that is rather given away by the name. Turn it on and then start throwing it to one another and at some random point in the all too near future the person catching it will get zapped. You never know when it’s going to ‘go live’ so it turns catch on its head – instead of worrying whether or not you can catch the ball now you’ll worry about what will happen if you catch the ball. This rubber-coated land mine has been the cause of lots of shrieks in the office – though oddly they seem to come before the person’s even caught the thing. There’s nothing like a bit of anticipatory fear to spice up a game! Features: A rubber coated ‘throw and catch’ ball with a twist 18 conductive metal pads to shock you by surprise. An internal timer that randomly decides to time-out and shock whoever is holding the ball at that point. An on/off switch so if you want a break from the shocks you can just play regular catch. Colours may vary. Suitable for ages 14 years+. Requires 2 x AAA Batteries (not included). Size: 7 x 7 x 7cm. This item emits Electric Shocks. Do not use if you have a pacemaker. Keep away from pets.
Price : £ 12.99

Patterns exist everywhere: in nature, in science, in religion, in business. Max Cohen (played hauntingly by Sean Gullette) is a mathematician searching for these patterns in everything. Yet, he’s not the only one, and everyone from Wall Street investors, looking to break the market, to Hasidic Jews, searching for the 216-digit number that reveals the true name of God, are trying to get their hands on Max. This dark, low-budget film was shot in black and white by director Darren Aronofsky. With eerie music, voice-overs, and overt symbolism enhancing the somber mood, Aronofsky has created a disturbing look at the world. Max is deeply paranoid, holed up in his apartment with his computer Euclid, obsessively studying chaos theory. Blinding headaches and hallucinogenic visions only feed his paranoia as he attempts to remain aloof from the world, venturing out only to meet his mentor, Sol Robeson (Mark Margolis), who for some mysterious reason feels Max should take a break from his research. Pi is complex–occasionally toocomplex–but the psychological drama and the loose sci-fi elements make this a worthwhile, albeit consuming, watch. Pi won the Director’s Award at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival. –Jenny Brown
