I have to admit I had trouble finding the UK release of Legend Of The 7 Golden Vampires in my local shops.However I picked it up from Britannia Music cheaply before they went under (also incidentally taking DD Video down with them & screwing up the Sony Hammer deal in the process)I also prior to joining Amazon had trouble finding Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb & Die Die My Darling (aka Fanatic) in shops locally as the ones near me do not have a great deal of back catalogue titles preferring to concentrate on the big blockbuster releases sadly.

Anyway,I did manage to pick up Die Die my Darling,that's a Hammer I believe....anyone seen it without giving too much away?

What's everyone's favourite Hammer film by the way?

The Reaper Man@Cult Labs 9th May 2008 07:19 PM

Fancy a poll or 2?;)

The Reaper Man@Cult Labs 11th May 2008 08:31 PM

A lot of hammer titles on them polls....tough decision....personal faves not on the polls include Dracula Has Risen From the Grave....probably shit myself when I was a nipper when the bloke couldn't kill Drac with the stake.....Frankenstein and The Monster from Hell is another favourite...old Dave Prowse's monster is a cracker,and with maybe the exception of FRANKENSTEIN MUST BE DESTROYED,is the I think the nastiest of the Hammer Frankensteins.....what does everyone else think?......
What's your fave Hammer film not listed on the polls?

Twins Of Evil (outstanding music & Cushing performance) and Demons Of The Mind (nastier and sleazier than usual for Hammer).

The Reaper Man@Cult Labs 11th May 2008 08:40 PM

Yeah Twins of Evil was also great,Demons,....I might have to give another go....
As mentioned elsewhere,VAMPIRE CIRCUS is also an entertaining little number,didn't really like Hands of the Ripper though....:(

I would say overall Hands Of The Ripper (1971) is my very favourite followed closely by The Brides Of Dracula.

I like Die Die My Darling a great deal.Stephanie Powers is very good as is Tallulah Bankhead.Quite a tense film in parts and also actually funny in some earlier scenes (intentionally).
