| Description: |
Fifty years ago, Britains Hammer Films changed the face of horror cinema with such films as "Dracula" and its many sequels, and made actors Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee international stars. Now, for the first time, Hammer has given its active backing to an authorized history of the company, and has provided unlimited access to its archives. |
| Synopsis: |
Fifty years ago, Hammer Films released their very first horror movie, The Quatermass Xperiment. The now-legendary British company went on to make such classics as The Curse of Frankenstein and Dracula (and their many sequels), making international stars out of Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, changing the face of horror cinema, and inspiring a generation of Hollywood filmmakers, including the likes of George Lucas, Martin Scorsese and Tim Burton. Now, for the first time, Hammer have given their active backing to an authorised history of the company, and have provided unlimited access to their archives. The Hammer Story provides a film-by-film dissection, dripping with rare promotional material and previously unpublished photographs. |
