THIS lot queuing outside Worcester's Odeon cinema in June 1991 don't look particularly scared right now.
But just wait until the lights go down and Anthony Hopkins gets his teeth into the Hannibal Lecter role.
Because this was the first showing in the city of what the Evening News labelled "the smash hit shocker" The Silence of the Lambs.
Crowds gathered nearly two hours before the doors opened and the line stretched down the block to see the nightmare story of the serial killer who skilled his victims alive.
Even Worcester vet Robin Walker, who was in the audience and must have been used to the sight of blood, said afterwards: "It was very scary."
While Sian Morris of Powick added: "I was on the edge of my seat for the whole time."
And she probably fell off it when someone tapped her on the shoulder and asked if they could get past.
