Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed (1969)
One of the best films Hammer ever made, this is the Anglo-horror cycle at its bleakest and finest.

Talky and dull sci-fi is one of the worst to come out of Britan in the 1960s.

Horrors of the Black Museum (1959)
Campy British chiller from 1959 starring Michael Gough and with some maliciously macabre set pieces.
