hello, does anyone remember a hammer horror film that featured some kind of devil worshipping cult in a forest clearing, lots of mist rolling around, and a naked woman in a telephone box, i watched it when i was a kid but cant find out what its called, hope someone remembers it.

But then, the devil worshipping episode in HHoH was the one with John Carson and Rosalyn Landor, Guardian of the Abyss. No forest clearing, no mist rolling, as far as I remember ... So probably you mixed a few different episodes together in your memory?

The description puzzles me a bit, I have to say. There isn't that much devil worship in Hammer movies - The Devil Rides Out, The Witches, and To the Devil a Daughter are the only which come to my mind, honestly.

There is some orgy, including the apparition of Baphomet, in The Devil Rides Out. You'll find mists rolling around in car chasing scenes, and - if I'm not mistaken - Charles Gray taking control over Nike Arrighi via telephone in one scene . She's never naked, though, but she might have been in a phone box.

A naked woman in a telephone box could come from the Hammer House Of Horror episode "Rude Awakening" with Denholm Elliot where he plays an estate agent having a dream within a dream within a dream in which his young female assistant appears in various sexy incarnations.

thanks for the replies, i'll have a look at the episodes youve mentioned.
the one with Denholm Elliot sounds rather familiar.

In that particular episode of HHoH called Rude Awakening,there is a naked woman ( Lucy Gutteridge ) in a telephone box but I do not recall any devil worshipping cult in that episode though.
There's a lot of dignity in that, isn't there? Going out like a raspberry ripple.

I've seen this episode "Rude Awakening" and can confirm it's excellent - one of the better stories. The dialogue is very tongue in cheek in places and, as usual, Denhom Elliot is very believable in the lead role.
Well worth a look!
