In my OneNites I have a Random Ideas notebook with an Utterly Random section in there. If nothing else I often get a laugh out of it, which is the most important thing.
I mentioned this to family friends as I’d watched it back in the day but in a recent rewatch I realised Peter bloody Capaldi was in it playing Stereotypical Scotsman #1.
If they are just mining nostalgia then they probably won’t last long but if they are going to push things forward (as the Dr Jekyll film suggests) then they could do well. Amicus was well known for its anthology horror films and, thanks to films like the V/H/S/ ones, they’re pretty popular now. If they let the current generation of horror authors loose they could come up with a hit.
Good to see Hammer back (again) and I’ll try and catch it in the cinema next week - looks like various Vues, Cineworlds and Showcases (and 3 Odeons for reasons that remain unclear) are showing it.
I’d definitely question Bait being described as a horror film but it does remind me to watch Enys Men - it’s a pity such films don’t get more broadly screened on release.
