Description

Fifty years ago, Britains Hammer Films changed the face of horror cinema with such films as "Dracula" and its many sequels, and made actors Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee international stars. Now, for the first time, Hammer has given its active backing to an authorized history of the company, and has provided unlimited access to its archives.
