ON SCREEN
 A serial killer holds the key to the Devil's destiny in Lost Souls, while the small screen offers Sheena: bubblegum entertainment about a jungle beauty and her skimpy costumes.
OFF THE SHELF
 Missionaries, mercenaries and castaways among the stars populate Balshazzar's Serpent by Jack Chalker, while visionary SF novelist Richard Paul Russo presents 14 stories in Terminal Visions.
GAMES
 Pull on a clean red shirt and tear up your copy of The Prime Directive for Dummies--it's the Star Trek: Voyager episode you can play at home: Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force, a first-person shooter for the PC.
CLASSICS
 A world of lonely figures, crammed streets and abandoned buildings, flying cars and street urchins--Blade Runner is a masterful noir detective story and a science fiction techno-thriller, all rolled into one.
COOL STUFF
 Twisted trees frame a cemetary gate while a strangely familiar Dracula lurks: it's the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror toy, which features figures and voice segments from The Simpsons Halloween specials.
SITE OF THE WEEK
 There's a really really big garage sale in the works and only you can stop it by visiting the Save the Mars Lander site. Is NASA right to scrap the Mars 2001 Surveyor Lander? Astronauts and engineers say no.
LETTERS
 One of our readers begs for Asimov movies while another howls for more werewolves on the screen, others debate Dark Angel's sizzle, Fox's "disregard for the American democratic process" and more.
