Writer/director Michael Dougherty’s fantastic comic/horror anthology TRICK ‘R TREAT, is a fun favourite of mine and the character of Sam is gleefully grotesque.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite.
