Hammer Horror fans, where are you?

[hammerhorrorfan]

So who's a fan of vintage horror movies, in particularly the Hammer Horror films of the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's? Anyone else here who cannot get enough of the likes of Peter Cushing & Christopher Lee?

Thanks for reading Paul

`Who doesn't adore Hammer horror? It was such a huge part of my childhood and I blame Chistopher Lee for my fasination with vampire films.

But i will admit a preference to Roger Cormans Edgar Allen poe films from the 60's not Hammer. Vincent Price was the ideal actor to portrait such classic works beautifully.

Then you have such outstanding classics as Mario Bava's The mask of Satan, its one of those films that sticks in your memory as a true classic, that and the orginal 1945 version of The picture of Dorian Gray.

`I ENJOYED ALL THOSE MOVIES AND WHEN THEY COME ON i WATCH THEM ALL OVER AGAIN.. They really don't make movies like that anymore, Christopher Lee. Peter Cushing,Vincent Price, Boris Karloff, and Bela Lagosi, Lon Chaney GREAT!!!
Dorian Gray excellent movie!!!

`Hope you have been watching The History Of Horror on BBC4 with Mark Gatiss. It has been a good watch but they never mentioned my favourite one...THEATRE OF BLOOD with Vincent Price!

So what's on your Halloween night watch list?

`Yes all of the hammer horror films were good, pardon the pun, so glad that they have started up again and long may they contnue to do so. The older films were really good as well with , Karloff, Lugosi and Chaney Jr.
