Invasion of the Remake


Ep.86 Remaking The Asphyx (1972)

May 02, 2017

In Victorian England, Sir Hugo Cunningham is seeking the secrets of life and death. In his research he discovers the means to capture the spirit of death, The Asphyx, and hold it indefinitely. In effect, becoming immortal. But immortality comes at a great cost. This is the crux of The Asphyx (1972, aka The Horror of Death), a small studio homage to the classic Hammer Films of the 60's and 70's. Don't worry, we'd never heard of it either, and it was kind of awesome. The Asphyx is exactly the kind of film Invasion of the Remake likes to discuss, rethink, and in effect, remake for today's audiences. So please join Jason, Sam, and Trish as they look into the forgotten gothic horror film, The Asphyx!
