I don’t know if you’ve been reading my Twitter blog, but I became a Hammer nut since I started reviewing their movies last October. I’m wrapping it up at this moment but it’s been a unique journey into the studio’s history.
My favorites so far included all seven of Christopher Lee’s Dracula films and all of Cushing’s Frankenstein films.
With Hammer releasing a new movie coming out featuring Lee, I’m hoping they’ll start releasing all their classics onto Blu-Ray, or just putting them back in all retail stores. Either way, the public must see them!
hahahahahahahahaahahaha @ carreyfan. Why would James read some random creepy person’s twitter blog?? lol I find this person fascinating. What a fucking creep! lol
thank you for opening my mind to so many movies, and I love horror, there really isn’t a lot of good horror films out there today , can’t wait to get my hands on them. =)
The Monster Man (as I call Cinemassacre in these Monster Madness’)
“And The Satanic Rights of Dracula.”
Ca$hman:
“Not to mention Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires, featuring not only Dracula, but seven other vampires, Van Helsing, and Six Kung Fu Dudes!!!”
I think the Universal films are better, but my dad loves Hammer horror movies. As a teenager, when he babysat for people, he’d stay up watching Hammer movies (but not the Dracula or Frankenstein ones), more the stand-alone episodes.
I would have loved to know a little more about the Quartermass series Hammer studios did myself – I’ve only caught a portion of the first one of the series and thought it was pretty cool all things considered.
I’ve seen some of the Dracula movies and the first Frankenstein movie, but my favourite Hammer movie has to be Hound of the Baskervilles with Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes. It was an awesome movie, but it didn’t make any money because there were no real monsters in it, so a planned series was scrapped. It’s a shame, because I would have loved to have seen more of Peter Cushing as The Great Detective.
I hate that Every M-M review has a Damn Commercial at the Beginning. If fact, Every Video that Shows up here has an Ad that runs before it.
I unserstand that James here needs to get paid some How for his efforts, and that its necassary to have some forms of Commercialisim – -But couldn’t there be a Better way of Showing these Ads Lesser times then Every Time ???
Great Vids though, Love the Monster Madness!! I dont think Anyone does Old Horror as Much Justice as well al AVGN !!
Hey james you should read some of darren shans books there called CIRQUE DU FREAK and THE DEMONATA both about vampires and demons trust me you’ll love them.

I think the hammer versions are ok but there is no doubt that the best ones where made by universal

I also wish you’d talked mor about the Hammer Mummy series oo.

I never realised that modern movies owe so much to the old classics. Awesome!
Damn, Dracula got all fucked up.

Love the Christopher Lee…love him!
I love how Mr. George Lucas use parts of these films in Star Wars.
Hammer kicks major fucking arse.
Dracula’s a Pimp.
Monster in the final Frankenstein film, the monster looks like the monster in the icy cave in Empire Srikes Back.
Just a bit of trivia here. Peter Grant, Led Zepplins’ manager worked for Hammer as a young man.
