Sounds good. I hope it lives up to its predecessor.

Hopefully with Hill writing the screenplay / story it has a chance.

If anyone is interested, Susan Hill's website has signed copies of the hardback novel for sale for £10 delivered. An April bonus is you get another signed ghost story (The Man in the Picture) free with any other purchase this month.

On a slightly disappointing note she was selling copies signed by herself and Daniel Radcliffe for the same price. - All gone now though.:(

Welcome to the Susan Hill's Website

Really? Grossed more than The Exorcist, The Omen etc?

Or do you mean highest grossing UK horror film ever?

I know what you mean, as someone at work told me the news yesterday and I was very surprised that it could have done more box office than some of the more 'established' genre high points, especially so soon. I think 'highest grossing UK horror' sounds more likely. :nod:

Either way, this is fantastic news for the future of Hammer! :clap:

Although as Homer J. Simpson once said - 'now don't screw it up ... '

That is immensely cool and must make your journey to work seem like a trip down memory lane.

Oi! Dracula AD 1972 is one of my favourite Hammer films! So yes, learn from the past, Woman in Black AD 2012 would be most welcome. :lol:

Its the highest grossing horror film in the UK ever!

However the system for recording such data has only been in effect for twenty years.

Me three! However, I don't think such a 'funky' setting would suit The Lady in Black.

meh, I always thought hammer flogged that paticular dead horse WAY too much. I understand any studios desire to capitalise on success but sometimes its good to end things while on top imo.
