:D :D :D :D :D :D You guys are really cracking me up!

Yeah... Great. Wonderful. Amazing.


Back to the topic of films (why most people come here I assume...take note) and Hammer films in particular, if anyone who does have an interest has not been driven off.


Which of the infamous announced projects which never got past the poster stage would you have most liked to see?

I have to say that the most interesting looked like "Zeppelin vs Pteradactyl"!!
Quite how they would have drummed up a budget big enough NOT to make this look awful is beyond me!
But i sure would have loved to see the results!

Some interesting news for R2 fans....Some very obscure non-Horror Hammer product is getting a release fom 'DD Video' and they will include some short films as well!


Stolen Face/Danger List

Spaceways/Operation Universe

Four Sided Triangle/The Right Person/Three 'Early Hammer' picture galleries

Mask of Dust/various Goodwood newsreels

LMAO!!!! :D I think these two need to settle this like men.........:D
What do you say boys????? :D

Classic you forgot to mention Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires was made by Toho studios and pehaps co produced by Hammer. Also Captian Kronos Vampire Hunter was made in 1974 not 1972.

oops ya it was 74'.

I remember when my dad took me to go see Captian Kronos Vampire Hunter at the Drive in in 1974. I was 13 and when were buying tickets the person said there was going to be some nudity in the movie. My dad asked how much and the woman said not much just a minute of it. My dad said well thats ok then. Anyway we saw the movie and a very attractive Caroline Munro. Its been said that Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter was the 1st Vampire movie to have nudity in it.
