Bodysnatchers Burke & Hare Full-Length Trailer
October 5th 2010 22:51
It’s an interesting, yet true, story about Burke (Simon Pegg) and Hare (Andy Serkis). They were immigrants to Scotland from Northern Ireland who, in the 1820s, got into the business of selling corpses to Edinburgh medical schools.
The circumstance was that with such an enterprising activity and so much of a demand for corpses, they were caught up in grave robbing and then murder to obtain the cadavers, far from the dedication to the cause of advancing medical science. Under the direction of John Landis, as expected, the humor is very dry, but if you don’t take the situation to seriously, you can have a lot of fun despite the horrific circumstances.
The film also stars Tom Wilkinson, Jessica Hynes, Isla Fisher, Tim Curry, Christopher Lee, Stephen Merchant, Jenny Agutter, Bill Bailey and Ronnie Corbett. This film is a riot. I can’t wait to see it. How about you?
Burke & Hare opens in UK theaters on October 29, 2010.
