Aug 26, 2023
New Alcatraz (2001)
Escape from New York meets Anaconda in this low budget formulaic snake flick.


Aug 26, 2023
Vampire Circus (1972)
Late Hammer horror which is one of their strongest vampire films, if not one of their best overall.


Aug 22, 2023
Mr Vampire Part 3 (1987)
More cornball kung-fu horror comedy antics with Mr Vampire and his bumbling assistants.


Aug 22, 2023
Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971)
Hammer's final mummy film doesn't feature a bandage-wearing monster.


Aug 22, 2023
The Mummy's Shroud (1967)
Beware the beat of the cloth-wrapped feet in Hammer's third mummy movie.


Aug 21, 2023
The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb (1964)
Hammer made virtually a remake of The Mummy, only without any of the things that made one that such a classic.


Aug 21, 2023
The Mummy (1959)
The last of Hammer's initial "big three" horrors isn't as strong as the other two but is still a damned fine example of British horror.


Aug 21, 2023
The Monster Club (1981)
Attempting to revive the quaint old school British horror anthology in the 80s wasn't a good move amidst the teen slashers.


Aug 20, 2023
The Curse of the Werewolf (1961)
Hammer's sole venture in werewolf territory is only saved by a brilliant debut performance by Oliver Reed.
