<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Greetings guys and ghouls and welcome to our first post of 2011! First of all, a huge thank you to all of you for your amazing support over the last nine months. Not only has our <b><a href="http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/bringclassichorrorfilmsbacktothebbc/">petition</a></b> reached well over 1300 signatures, the <b>Classic Horror Campaign</b> has also featured on BBC Television's "Points of View" show and been the subject of various magazine articles. I can't even count the amount of websites, blogs and online forums that have focused on our ongoing efforts to bring back BBC2's iconic Horror Double Bill seasons!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

We are currently in talks about hosting some live Classic Horror Double Bill screenings in the UK which we would love as many of you to attend as possible.

</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With Christmas fast approaching, what better present could there be for a horror movie fan than for the BBC to Bring Back their iconic Horror Double Bills? So we urge you all to go and sign our <b><a href="http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/bringclassichorrorfilmsbacktothebbc/">petition</a></b> and get all your friends, family and horror fiends to do the same!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We recently spoke to British Scream Queen Emily Booth who had this to say :</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"The classic horror campaign is something I support because I have a huge nostalgia and admiration for the films of Hammer. The British film 'industry' used to have distinctive eras that were quintessentially British such as Hammer and Carry On and they are a slice of history that has ceased to exist. Not only are they wonderful films that captured gothic romance and indeed Britain beautifully but important parts of our history.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is a shame these kind of films will never be made again as they belong to a different time but we can at least keep them alive by showing beautiful and restored versions of them on TV. Horror has never been so popular - especially with young people but it would be great to remind the new generation of its roots - and to lure them away from endless American remakes, so they can see that British horror had a huge influence on the genre and that the films of Hammer are treasures to be savoured.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These films are not just about nostalgia and looking back, but brilliant reminders that some of the best horror films were made during these times when directors relied on atmosphere, tension, story and character over CGI, fast editing and explosions!"</span><br />

The documentary is fronted by "League of Gentlemen's" Mark Gatiss and episode one is being screened Monday October 11th at 9pm, with episodes two and three to follow at the same time on 18th and 25th October. Make sure you tune in!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2YRqvDmPfgw/TK2CQr_HgPI/AAAAAAAABWo/xFRzOMP2UAw/s1600/bride+of+frank.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="241" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2YRqvDmPfgw/TK2CQr_HgPI/AAAAAAAABWo/xFRzOMP2UAw/s320/bride+of+frank.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>As well as this excellent documentary, BBC4 are also screening some classic horror movies this month! First up is "The Bride of Frankenstein"(1935) which airs straight after episode one of History of Horror at 10pm.<br />
Next is "Cat People" (1942) on October 13th at 10:45pm. A truly atmospheric exercise in suspense, this is still a genuinely frightening motion picture and if you've never seen it, make sure you watch this rare television screening!<br />
"I Walked With a Zombie" (1943) is being shown at midnight on the 14th October so you may need copious amounts of coffee to stay up for this one!<br />
And that's not all! On Monday 11th October, after the "Bride of Frankenstein" screening, there is a documentary called "Transylvania Babylon", which takes a humorous look at movie vampires!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2YRqvDmPfgw/TK2G_ukLwFI/AAAAAAAABWs/urafguLe0aw/s1600/cat+poop.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2YRqvDmPfgw/TK2G_ukLwFI/AAAAAAAABWs/urafguLe0aw/s1600/cat+poop.jpg" /></a></div>So show your appreciation for these wonderful documentaries and classic movie screenings! The more people who watch these, the bigger chance we have of the BBC bringing back the Horror Double Bill as a regular Saturday night event! Spread the word and email the Beeb to let them know how much we appreciate their dedication to classic horror! Enjoy!<br />

In October, BBC4 will be screening a three part documentary <b>"History of Horror"</b> fronted by Mark Gatiss. The first episode will cover Hollywood's Golden Age of horror of the 30's and 40's. Episode two concentrates on the reinvention of the horror film, with it's greater emphasis on sex and gore as exemplified by Britain's Hammer Films. Finally, the last episode looks at the gritty new wave of horror cinema which began with George Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" in 1968. The documentary will be supported by various horror movie screenings which have yet to be anounced. The provisional airdates for "History of Horror" are Monday 11th, 18th and 25th October. </span><br />
