Burke and Hare, Directed by John Landis: 2010 Film Reviews

As the New Year approaches, I'm posting a roundup of reviews of John Landis's Burke and Hare for 2010, approximately in the order I tweeted them. Some have already vanished from the web, so there are no guarantees that these links will remain in perpetuity.

My personal favorite: Murder and a curry, http://bit.ly/dg6rLa.
