A Newer, Brighter Poster for the Comedic Thriller Burke and Hare is Here!

Shock Till You Drop has gotten their hands on a second poster for the UK shot Burke and Hare. This latest graphic is a "quad" (Shock) poster, as the shape is in the form of a rectangle and this latest poster art is a nice step up from the shady, blurry poster of the past. This newest picture is more colourful and the comedic themes are highlighted, with one of Burke and Hare's victims shown in the right back panel. The film has not announced a North American release date, but the United Kingdom will show the film in theatres October 29th; cast and crew information on this project are below.

The synopsis for Burke and Hare:

"Based on the true story about the famous murderers, 'Burke And Hare' follows the hapless exploits of these two men as they fall into the highly profitable business of providing cadavers for the medical fraternity in Nineteenth Century Edinburgh, then the centre of medical learning. The one thing they were short of was bodies" (IMDb).


Release Date: October 29, 2010 (UK).

Director: John Landis.

Writers: Piers Ashworth, and Nick Moorcroft.

Cast: Simon Pegg, Andy Serkis, Isla Fisher, Jessica Hynes, Tom Wilkinson, Tim Curry, Ronnie Corbett, Reece Shearsmith, David Schofield, Allan Corduner, Bill Bailey, Hugh Bonneville, Michael Smiley, and Christopher Lee.
