Further to my recent Sheffield based film shenanigans, I
will be at the National Media Museum in Bradford on Saturday 15th and
Sunday 16th of February to introduce a weekend of Gothic along with
Dr Helena Ifill and Dr Matt Cheeseman from the University of Sheffield. More details here.
Apart from the obvious joy of seeing three incredible Hammer
films on the big screen, there will also be the rare opportunity to take a look at some of the Museum’s archive
of British horror artifacts and memorabilia, including a wealth of production
sketches, stills, plaster casts and a set of blood pumping plastic fangs worn
by Christopher Lee in ‘Dracula’.
Look out for me, I’ll be the one receiving
medical treatment for over-excitement.
Oh, and 'Island of Terror' will return on the 2813th February.
Yet again another good evening I can't get to. Anyway good to see the Island returning.
ReplyDeleteHoorah!!! Roll on Feb 28th....
ReplyDeleteSee you there.
ReplyDeleteQuick question: are the public allowed to use Lee’s fangs as horror-themed suppositories?
- only for the afternoon, I'd hand them back in at the end.
