Description de l'ouvrage :
Designed as a source for enthusiasts of British horror films, this guide reveals the shooting locations of more than 100 films released between 1932 and 2006, from The Abominable Doctor Phibes (1971) to Witchfinder General (1968). Each entry includes cast/crew credits, a brief plot synopsis, and a description of the film’s in-studio or on-site shooting locations; many include modern day photographs of the sites.
Separate chapters provide in-depth accounts of individual locations. For the studio locations, the writeups include a complete list of the films produced at each studio and a brief description of the studio’s historical development. Accounts of the on-site locations feature an in-depth physical description of the location and any available information on its present purpose and ownership.
