Keeping it creepy this week, due to our special guest Gordon Smith, who's going to be shooting a horror on the Broads in the Summer. Starting the show was "Ghost Town" by The Specials, taken from "Shaun of the Dead" and "Ghost Town". I (Simone) had just seen "Ghost Town", and despite the fact that is was very sweet and slightly over pallatable, it was a very innocent, warm hearted ghosty romp, with Gervais supplying a restrained and controlled performnace, making it a quite enjoyable affair. The second tune came from one of the scariest films known to teenagers in the early-90s- "Candyman" (Candyman Candyman Candyman Candym...I can't do it!). Phillip Glass provodes the soundtracks, and what a soundtrack it is. Spine-tingling perfection!
