What critics compared 10 Rillington Place to
In Bardem, the Coens give us the coldest serial killer since Richard Attenborough's turn as real-life murderer John Christie in 10 Rillington Place (1971).
As Hot Fuzz was about all about bringing a Micheal Bay Bad Boys sensibility to the quiet English countryside for giggles, only to disguise what is in effect, a pithy satirical remake of The Wicker Man, I would argue here that there is a sly 10 Rillington Place riff playing out in the background.
