Skeptics Cinema & SciScreen presents: Burke and Hare (2010)

As part of the Edinburgh Horror Festival, come along and see the 2010 John Landis movie staring Simon Pegg and Andy Serkis as two of Edinburgh's most notorious serial killers: Burke and Hare.

Why rob graves when killing's so much easier...

Before the movie, author Peter Ranscombe will tell us about the real Burke & Hare and why the need for bodies for scientific progress was so strong, it even excused murder. Peter has done extensive research for his new book: Hare - A Novel.
