Hammer Horror on Youtube: The Quatermass Xperiment
Youtube Direktxperiment, via Badass Digest
Hammer Horror stellen grade ihren Backkatalog in voller Länge auf Youtube. Bislang neben ein paar klassischen Trailer online: Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter von 1974 (muss man nicht kennen, ziemlich obskurer Zigeuner-Vampir-Flick), zwei frühe Krimis, die ich nicht kenne (The Man in Black und Dick Barton Special Agent), sowie den hervorragenden The Quatermass Xperiment (US-Release: The Creeping Unknown), der erste Hammer Horrorfilm überhaupt. Sollte man allein aus filmhistorischen Gründen kennen.
The cult classic that heralded Hammer’s arrival on the world stage has been digitally remastered and fully restored for the first time. Watch it in full 1080p High Definition – only on Hammer’s Youtube channel.
Synopsis:
Britain’s first rocket has been successfully launched and returns to Earth but communication has been severed. Only one of the three spacemen (Wordsworth) remains on board, his physical and mental health severely damaged. He is put under strict observation but his wife smuggles him out of the hospital only to unleash the biggest ever threat to civilisation – for the survivor is being consumed by an alien force, which gains strength from human flesh to multiply and grow, threatening to engulf and kill all living organisms. Professor Quatermass (Donlevy) must find a way to overcome the thing before it’s too late.

Vor anderthalb Jahren bloggte ich Flickr-User Polettis Set „The haunted hot Women of Hammer Horror“, jetzt gibt’s sowas ähnliches auch als Buch und io9 hat ‘ne knackige Vorschau darauf.
Over fifty years ago, with the release of The Curse of Frankenstein and Christopher Lee in Dracula, Hammer ushered in a whole new era of blood and barely restrained cleavage in glorious colour, mixing sex and horror with a style and panache that made the small British company world famous.
Bursting at the seams with rare and previously unpublished photographs from Hammer’s archive and private collections worldwide, and featuring many new interviews, Hammer Glamour is a lavish, full colour celebration of Hammer’s female stars, including Ingrid Pitt, Martine Beswick, Caroline Munro, Barbara Shelley, Joanna Lumley, Nastassja Kinski, and of course Raquel Welch (who can forget her fur bikini in One Million Years B. C.?)

Flickr-User Poletti, der schon damals die Galactically Hot Women Of Star Trek und The Ladies of „U.F.O.“ bei Flickr zusammenstellte, hat jetzt die Frauen aus den ollen Hammer Studio Horror Filmen in ein Set gepackt, darunter auch dieses creepy Bild von Carol Marsh aus Dracula in ihrer Rolle als untote Lucy Holmwood.
