A Very British Horror is a podcast covering all aspects of British horror tv and film. Chris and Paul take a light-hearted look at the genre.
Grab your strait jacket and enter Amicus' Asylum (1972). We're joined by T D Velasquez from the brilliant @AndNowPodcast to talk mannequins, funny little dolls, Peter Cushing and much more in what turned out to be our longest episode ever.
This episode we talk to writer, producer and director Jed Shepherd about his career so far, including the 2020 phenomenon Host and his new real-time full motion video game, Ghosts. We also talk about Night of the Comet and because its us we sneak in a little chat about... Hammer's Horror of Frankenstein!
You can watch Host on Shudder. If you haven't seen it yet you're in for a treat.

Dracula is back!
What do we think of Dracula 4 (3 if you don't include the one without Dracula)?
Do we like its dynamic priests, double dose of innkeeper and enough head injuries to go round?

"MIND THE DOORS!"
Death Line (1972), the most requested film for us to cover, finally comes to A Very British Horror.
We venture underground to London's tube network to seek out some cannibals. Along the way we discuss whether this is really a lost episode of The Sweeney, the geography of the London Underground system, Marlon Brando and Paul educates Chris on a 1970s rock legend!

Nature or nurture? Would watching Jack the Ripper, your father, killing your mother make you a violent psycho? Why do I have Hot Chocolate's "It Started With A Kiss" in my head?
Join us as we fail to answer any of these questions when we discuss the 1971 Hammer film Hands of the Ripper.
