We said: “A fun, kid-friendly hack-and-slash horror that warms the heart more than it delivers the scares.” Bonuses: short featurettes on adapting the game, the animatronics and the sets. Finally, the latest TV box set is (Blu-ray, 5 February). It has restored versions of and , plus , Lars von Trier’s 2022 return to the titular haunted hospital.
