Chris is back as our permanent co-host and to welcome him we are talking about a favourite of his, the Hughes Brothers’ 2001 Jack the Ripper horror From Hell, starring Johnny Depp and Heather Graham and a stellar supporting cast including Ian Holm and Robbie Coltrane.
The film is part of a long history of Ripper-inspired horror films going back to Hitchcok’s 1927 The Lodger, and it is also based on Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell‘s graphic novel of the same name. With a stellar cast and an intricate plot, it’s a film that is steeped in legend and wears it well, like a shadowy figure in the London night.
