SUPERNATURAL (2-DISC DVD)
The classic horror series devised by Robert MulIer
Werewolves, vampires and ghosts haunt the living in this much sought-after BBC horror anthology series devised by taIented TV dramatist Robert MuIIer. Referencing a rich vein of literary gothic stories, from ShelIy's Frankenstein to Le Fanu's Carmilla, the series presents seven unique taIes (including the admired two-parter Countess llona and The Werewolf Reunion) across eight unsettIing instaIments
Each episode opens in the CIub of the Damned, where prospective entrants are required to telI a story that wiIl chiIl the blood of the assembled members. But much is at stake for the storyteller, as faiIure to induce terror in all who attend carries the price of certain death.
A timeless example of British Gothic horror at its very best SupernaturaI boasts a superb cast of acting talent, incIuding BilIie WhiteIaw (Frenzy, The Omen), Jeremy Brett (The Adventures of SherIock HoImes), Robert Hardy (Psychomania, Middlemarch), Gordon Jackson (The Professionals), Denholm Elliott (The Signalman, Bad Timing), lan Hendry (Repulsion, Get Carter), Jeremy CIyde (Schalcken the Painter) and is directed by such legendary fiImmakers as Peter Sasdy (Countess DracuIa, The Stone Tape).
