How does it work out in this situation? Do both Hammer and Momentum earn from ticket sales or have Momentum basically bought the film outright from Hammer, or do Hammer pay Momentum to release it in cinemas?

So Momentum pays Hammer and then releases it, both companies get profit but as Momentum paid for it they get to decide the rating for it. |

Creepshow 3. I heard it was bad, but being the glutton for punishment that I am I thought. "How bad can it be?" Suffice to say, that's a 104 mins of my life I will never get back.

Just wanted to chip in to The Woman in Black debate. I went to see it last night at Cineworld, Glasgow and it was a grim experience. From the first whistle it felt like a kindergarten - shrieks, giggles, kids sprinting down the aisle every 5 minutes. I don't need to tell anyone here that a ghost story is dependent on atmosphere and use of silence - this is impossible to achieve when every telegraphed shock (and there were far too many in this film) is accompanied by a barrage of prepubescent caterwauling. IMO it was a big mistake to make this a 12 cert, yes, they may make more money in the short term but at what cost to the studio's credibility? There were more walkouts during this screening than I've ever seen - I doubt many of these folk will be keen to relive the experience by buying this movie on DVD or returing to future Hammer cinema screenings. Eventually (after an hour) security moved in and ejected about 2 dozen little neds/idiots. I don't know if this was an isolated experience but I'm guessing it's going on all over the country. Bottom line - keep horror movies to a 15 cert, it's the maturity of the audience attracted thats the main issue, not profanity/gore etc. Re the film itself - a handsomely mounted succession of boo scares - no classic in my book but not bad.

Exactly! Making it a 12 makes sure if you go at busy periods the cinema is filled with kids who talk/laugh etc all through the movie. it ruins the experience for those mature enough for the experience. I have heard a lot of complaints about this issue and only way to avoid it is if the cinema has a late night over 18 screening or go in the afternoon. |

I HATE it when little shitters muck about in a cinema. Oh it's not so bad when it's tiny totters parking about, but tween kids are unbearable.
