Wicker Man is fantastic; I like The Creeping Flesh and Witchfinder General, too.

i think some of the tigon were up there with hammer things like blood on satans claw,the creeping flesh etc also some good independent ones like the wicker man,horror express,death line,fright etc.

I love the Corman Poes. But Amicus over Hammer? Not for me.

[PNGwynne]

I'd put Dr. Phibes in a class by itself, but that's just me . Some of the Corman "Poes" are terrific, there are four or so I watch over & over.

Will probably get a lot of bad flack from this comment but I always thought the Hammer "pretenders" were better than Hammer itself -- be it Corman, Amicus etc.

I agree with you on some of them for sure. I felt most of Hammer's sci-fi efforts were weak, and I didn't care for their contemporary horrors like Dracula A.D. 1972. Amicus' "The Skull" and "The Abominable Dr. Phibes" were the best of those type films IMO.

You should check them out. Once you get the feel for the formula, they're quite charming and addictive. It's a really fun journey to discover the good ones.

I loved Cushing and Morell as Holmes and Watson, I wish Hammer had done more films with them.
