Hell DVD - £6.99
Making their third feature since 1993's Menace II
Society, twins Allen and Albert Hughes approach the Jack the Ripper case with
physical precision, re-creating the gritty Whitechapel district of 1888 London
in meticulous detail. What they've forgotten is the sheer terror that gripped
Whitechapel in the wake of the Ripper's slaying of five prostitutes, investigated
here by a Scotland Yard sleuth (Johnny Depp) who uses opium, laudanum and absinthe
to fuel his semi-prescient visions of the slayings.
