Preview: Scream hammer horror
Brace yourself for a hair-raising experience at the Museum of the Moving Image from next Wednesday. "Hammer Horror" promises a grisly, yet light-hearted look at the film classics created by Hammer, and says fangs for 40 years of vampires and werewolves to the well-loved British film studio.
Among the exhibits are Count Dracula's coffin, Frankenstein's monster (right), and a life-size replica of Christopher Lee as the Egyptian mummy. And if you're harbouring doubts about the secret life of one of your colleagues, the display also has essential instructions on how to tell a vampire from an ordinary person.
Museum of the Moving Image, South Bank, SE1 (0171-928 3535) from 3 Dec
