John Landis, the man behind great films such as The Blues Brothers and Animal House, has returned to the big screen and it looks liket he will be coming in full force. Burke and Hare is his long awaited return to comedy and big screen filmmaking altogether.
The black comedy loosely based on a true story stars Simon Pegg and Andy Serkis as two poor fellows who are looking to make some fast cash and do so by murdering people to sell their bodies to science for three pounds a pop. It’s a pretty cool concept and I bet that you’ll find yourself grinning and laughing at the trailer once you watch it after the jump.
Synopsis:
“BURKE & HARE” is a black comedy based on the true story of the body-snatchers William Burke (Simon Pegg) and William Hare (Andy Serkis), directed by Hollywood legend, John Landis. These two Irish entrepreneurs discover that a dead body can fetch a hefty price when the demands of the leading medical professors Dr. Knox (Tom Wilkinson) and Dr. Monroe (Tim Curry) reach beyond that of the local supply.
