Hammer Special: The Nanny vs. The Woman In Black: Angel Of Death

Welcome to Highbrow Lowbrow, the show where our podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery pit high art against low culture.

In this episode, we look at two classic Hammer Horror films.

Steve’s pick is The Nanny, a chilling psychological thriller in which Bette Davis plays a babysitter that you won’t be rushing out to hire to look after your kids.

Dan’s choice is The Woman In Black: Angel Of Death. While he concedes that it is not the most successful take on Susan Hill’s spinetingling tale, it still has enough scares to be worth your time.

We hope our choices don’t leave you too afraid of the dark, dear listener. If things get too frightening, keep reminding yourself… it’s only a movie. It’s only a movie. Beware spoilers and the shadows. Enjoy the show...
