The Queen of Hammer, Barbara Shelley, was born on this day in 1932. Here’s her magnificent transformation in Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966), her personal favourite and most iconic Hammer role. 🖤

Agreed!
Watching the second half of Plague Of The Zombies (John Gilling, 1966) with lunch and wishing André Morell had made another five Hammer horror films in which he played Sir James Forbes, occult detective.

I've been watching KINO LORBER's blu-ray of THE NIGHT STALKER (1972) as my Go-To-Bed movie the last couple of nights.

The transfer is pretty exquisite, and it's a hell of a fun movie, and looks much better than you'd think a TV movie from the 70s would Darren McGavin is superb in these!

Released on this day in the US, Hammer’s THE MUMMY (1959) features this scene where Peter Cushing runs Christopher Lee’s Kharis through. Inspiration taken from the film’s poster. #hammerhorror #britishhorror #themummy

Kolchak’s coming back, baby...in style. NEW episode tomorrow dives deep into The NIGHT STALKER, the sequel and the TV series KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER. Grab your straw hats and join me. #70shorror #vampirefilms #kolchak #thenightstalker

Is this the most faithful version of Stoker’s Dracula? I say, yes! The BBC’s 1977 COUNT DRACULA followed the novel closely even regarding Dracula’s squalling gift to the brides. #classichorror #dracula #70shorror #bramstoker #bramstokersdracula

Any Kolchak fans out there? You may know him from #achristmasstory, but first Darren McGavin was Carl Kolchak. This is the legendary opening from the US TV movie THE NIGHT STALKER (1972). #classichorrormvoies #70smovies #kolchak #vampires

Only #petercushing could sell being chased by a floating skull. One of my favorite discoveries this year Freddie Francis’ THE SKULL from 1965. #classichorror #classichorrormovies #britishhorrormovies #60shorror

Hammer do crazy with class, tense and tautly twisted around a vulnerable Scott and unstable Reed. Strikingly shot, dark and deliciously chilling. 1963.

Roman Polanski’s THE FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS was #releasedonthisday in 1967. An atmospheric Hammeresque send-up of the vampire film, it also spawned a stage musical with the film’s original title DANCE OF THE VAMPIRES. #sharontate #classichorrorfilms #vamprefilms #britishhorror

On what would be their final pairing as the Count and Van Helsing, Lee and Cushing share a joke while filming The Satanic Rites of Dracula, which began principal photography on this day in 1972 🖤
