I'm not making this up. There really is a William Shatner DVD club. Every month you'll get a DVD selected by William Shatner himself (maybe) as well as a newsletter with Shatner's reviews of movies. There's even a chance to vote in weekly polls on Shatner's best Star Trek performances.
“But what kind of movies will I get if I join Billy's DVD club?” I hear you ask.
Why, 'Underground hits no one else has', of course!
By which, of course, they mean absolute bollocks B-movies that no one with any sense will watch and which probably cost $0.99 in the bargain bin – but to you, discerning sci-fi fan, only $4 by post. Films like Immortel: 'New York 2095. In a strange pyramid floating in the sky, gods of ancient Egypt are judging Horus...'
The sad thing is, I'm absolutely convinced dozens of sci-fans will join. Twats. At least Shatner can laugh all the way to the bank. Did you know that during the dot.com bubble, he was the highest paid actor in the world? Now he's doing this and All Bran ads. Weird, huh?

Maybe he'll send a dvd of his best mate Ben Folds!
