Hammer Habitues

[GordoCrisp]

Those who know their Hammer horror well-- We got in a DVD collection at the store where I work.

Four Hammer films:

The Two Faces of Dr Jekyll
Scream of Fear
The Gorgon
The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb


These four are unknown to me; opinions on whether this one is worth owning?

Thanks.

I got the Jekyl movie on the DVR, recorded off of TCM this weekend, so I haven't seen it yet. The Gorgon is good(it has Lee and Cushing, so of course it is!). Curs of the Mummy's Tomb has a nice twist on the usual Mummy storyline. Not sure about Scream of Fear.

I'd nap it--Scream of Fear is a good B&W suspense chiller.

^Thanks guys, I appreciate it!

Happy Halloween season to ya.

Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll is one of their best non-Lee/Cushing starring movies.

Anything Terence Fisher directed, and Carreras produced is the upper tier of Hammer.

Thanks hedrap.

I'd grab it for Gorgon and dr Jekyll alone.
Mummy is good as well.
I'm kind of fuzzy on scream of fear?

Fred Clark spiffs up "...Mummy's Tomb", and I would watch George Pastell in anything. It has a good plot, but the pace is slow & boy, that is one stocky, stodgy mummy lol.
