London Horror Movie Club

Welcome to the London Horror Movie Club, a monthly podcast where we take a bite out of London’s weird, wonderful, and wild horror films, one movie at a time.

This podcast grew out of the work of horror author and London horror guide Lauren Jane Barnett, and from Season 3 she is joined by her brother to talk horror. Two siblings from two generations, living in two countries, talking about one thing they both love.

He ran a video shop showing banned films in the back, was a recurring extra in "Dr Who", made his own horror film for next to nothing, and now owns the Lumiere cinema in Romford – one of the few successful cinemas – while hosting the Romford Horror Festival and Romford Film Festival, which has boasted Oscar-shortlisted films. When it comes to film, there's little that Spencer Hawken hasn't done, and Chris and I got to ask all about it.
