Simon Pegg & Andy Serkis filming Burke and Hare in Edinburgh

Simon Pegg, Andy Serkis and John Landis were filming the new Burke and Hare film on Old Fish Market Close last night. This scene involves them running down the street followed by a barrel which bounces over them. You can hear John Landis in the background shouting as the barrel bounces over them

"Burke and Hare" is being directed by John Landis, the director of "Blues Brothers, Beverly Hills Cop 3, Blues Brothers 2, Coming to America,Three Amigos, Spies Like Us, Trading Places, Animal House" and let's not forget the classic Horror Comedy "An American Werewolf in London" in 1981. It seems like Eddie Murphy is his favorite actor, he has him in most of his movies. If John Landis is making "Burke and Hare", then the film will be funny, scary, bloody and interesting!

This reminds me of something I saw the other night. The Nutty Professor. I believe that is also a movie that was filmed with cameras.

@patronsaint89 Jesus, why watch it if it's such a big deal to you? I think others are able to decide for themselves, thanks very much.

I have waited ages for a decent film to come telling the tale of Burke & Hare im sick of films about Jack the ripper now! Cant wait to see it I think Andy Serkis is a great actor and is perfect for the role!

Is it going to have a theatrical release? Simon Pegg and Christopher Lee? It damn sure better.
