Release date: February 15

"Our second Columbia Noir box set takes a dive once more into the studio’s archives and the world of film noir – a world of undercover detectives (The Mob) and emotionless hitmen (Murder by Contract), a world where film is inspired by real-life criminal activities (Tight Spot, based loosely on Virginia Hill’s testimony against Bugsy Siegel) and real-life criminal activities are inspired by film (711 Ocean Drive, which attracted the unwanted attention of mobsters), and a world where Glenn Ford finds himself unwittingly embroiled in murder – twice (Framed, Affair in Trinidad).

All six films are presented for the first time on Blu-ray in the UK, with The Mob, Tight Spot and Murder by Contract making their world Blu-ray premieres. This stunning collection includes newly recorded commentaries on each film, assorted bonus materials, including six short films starring the Three Stooges, lampooning the tropes and themes of the features, a 120-page book, and is strictly limited to 6,000 numbered units"

'The Snorkel' (1958) - Limited edition Blu-ray pre-order available from Powerhouse direct - £12.99

Release date: February 15

"Before becoming synonymous with the horror genre, Hammer Films had in the 1950s produced a number of noir-inspired crime and suspense films. The Snorkel is one of the finest of these.

Penned by Jimmy Sangster (with nods to Alfred Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt) and directed by Guy Green (A Patch of Blue), this elaborate and ingenious thriller pits murderous stepfather (Peter van Eyck) against his young stepdaughter (Mandy Miller) who is convinced he killed her parents, and is determined to prove it - before he makes her his next victim…"

'Never Take Sweets From A Stranger' (1960) - Blu-ray pre-order available from Powerhouse direct - £12.99

Release date: February 15

"One of Hammer’s most controversial and genuinely adult thrillers, Never Take Sweets from a Stranger is a serious drama that dealt candidly (for the time) with the issue of child abuse.

Deftly handled, the film is a sincere and unsensational treatment of a taboo subject. Avoiding melodrama it addresses the horrors of the real world but remains a compelling and genuinely unsettling work."

'Cash On Demand' (1961) - Blu-ray pre-order available from Powerhouse direct - £12.99

Release date: February 15

"This tense and hugely entertaining heist thriller is a Hammer take on A Christmas Carol, which pits miserly and fastidious bank manager (Peter Cushing in sparkling form) against debonair robber André Morell, as a plot to rob a bank on Christmas Eve unfolds in almost real time.

Reuniting Cushing and Morell, who had just played Holmes and Watson for Hammer in The Hound of the Baskervilles (and co-starred in the BBC's controversial 1954 adaptation of George Orwell's 1984), this ingenious suspenser is now regarded by many as one of Hammer’s best films."

  • Lois Daine on ‘Cash on Demand’ (2018, 8 mins): a new and exclusive interview with the actor
  • Original theatrical trailer
  • Image galleries: press and promotional material
  • English subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing
