Though best known for its horror films, Hammer produced a wide variety of movies in many genres. The British studio was famous for its exciting stories and expert action--all on very small budgets and short shooting schedules.

From The Public Life of Henry the Ninth (1935) to The Lady Vanishes (1978), this is the definitive work on Hammer''s 165 films. Complete filmographic data are provided for each film, including release dates in both the United Kingdom and the United States, running time, length, distributor, complete cast and production credits, and alternate titles. These data are followed by an extensive plot synopsis, including contemporary critical commentary and behind-the-scenes information from many of the players and crew members.

Industry Reviews

"excellent...the authors do an amazing job...impressive"-Classic Images; "an encyclopedic wealth of information...an important research tool"-Journal of Popular Culture; "there is a lot of love for Hammer Films here, and a lot of good research, which is as it should be, and while there are many books on Hammer-few have such a fine eye for detail. Thus, this is a valuable reference work, and a good read in its own right"-Destructive Music; "excellent"-Psychotronic; "This is a great reference book which I'm sure you'll want to add to your collection"-SF Crowsnest.
