Some of these titles have not been seen for many years.

Unfortunately, "Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll" (1960) is not on the list, but there any many titles that Hammer fans will be thrilled to own that many thought would never see the light of day.

Some really good little films there.

Stranglers of Bombay and Terror of the Tongs! Fantastic - I really did think I'd die having never seen those two (and I plan on living forever, or at least to die trying)!

Are they sure about CASH ON DEMAND. I have a DVD copy, admittedly taken from the original video. Also THE SATANIC RITES OF DRACULA is still around.

Gorgon! FINALLY.

The last couple of years, I've made hubby wear the headgear (which really is kinda cute on him but he always fusses about the Margaret Hamilton nose and the uni-brow.) He spends more time arguing about doing the Harry Hamlin role instead of sticking with this excellent Hammer film. He hardly ever lets me have fun!
