British horror is making something of a comeback it seems, a fact not missed by the Guardian website this morning.
Joe Cornish, one half of comedy duo Adam and Joe, is directing his first feature Attack the Block, which will share producers with horror hit Shaun of the Dead. Meanwhile Hammer Films, the studio synonymous with British horror in the Sixties and Seventies, is on the comeback trail after a thirty year break from the genre, with a slate of productions that includes a 3D version of The Woman in Black.
The adaptation of the hit West End play will be directed by James Watkins, whose previous credits include the similarly chilling My Little Eye and Eden Lake. The Guardian credits Watkins’ work in the genre as key to its renewed success, along with the likes of Danny Boyle (28 Days Later), Neil Marshall (The Descent) and Christopher Smith (Creep).
