In the early 70s Hammer tried to breathe new life into their gothic horror cycle with some fascinating films that broke free of the rigid Hammer formula. Countess Dracula (1971) is one of their most successful efforts. Ingrid Pitt is terrific.

Lust for a Vampire (1971). Possibly excepting Dracula AD 1972 this must surely be the most reviled of all Hammer’s movies.

Its problem is that it's sleazy and trashy but probably needed more sleaze and more trashiness. But it's still good fun.

Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense (1984), the anthology TV series that was Hammer's last gasp. It's much better than its reputation suggests. In fact it's excellent.

An extremely varied mix of supernatural horror, thriller, spookiness and weirdness.

The German DVD set includes all thirteen episodes in English.

Dracula Prince of Darkness (1966), first Hammer horror film to suggest that vampirism is all about awakening female sexuality.

That's not to say the movie is in favour of female sexuality. The fact that it clearly made the director uncomfortable is what makes it such an interesting movie.

Includes a horrifying staking scene.

Peter Sasdy’s Countess Dracula (1971), based on the infamous real-life Hungarian Countess Erzsébet Báthory, believed to be the most horrific female serial killer in history.

One of Hammer's most successful attempts to breathe new life into their gothic horror output.

Ingrid Pitt is suitably gorgeous and evil.

Terence Fisher's Dracula: Prince of Darkness was the first Hammer film I ever saw so obviously I have a definite soft spot for it.

For a 1966 Hammer film it's surprisingly disturbing. In this movie vampirism is all about female sexuality.

And of course, Christopher Lee as Dracula.

Terence Fisher's Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed (1969) starring Peter Cushing, features a monster who isn’t very monstrous and is very sympathetic.

Overall the most satisfying of all Hammer's Frankenstein movies with a real edge to it. There’s no high camp here. The mood is relentlessly grim and the shocks really do shock.

Half of the 750 copies of this new (and likely definitive) first volume on Hammer already sold in the first week. Those Peveril books are never cheap but once they're gone they usually go for genuinely insane amounts on Ebay.

Anyway, that's my excuse why I caved in and purchased this and another one of their books over the weekend. I'll pretend it's an investment that will help me through retirement.
