    The Man Who Could Cheat Death

    The Man Who Could Cheat Death

    Everlasting life - the dream of man and AA battery alike.

    We have a look at Hammer's 1959 take on the perils of immortality, as Anton Diffring stars as Dr Georges Bonnet - a remarkably youthful-looking 104 year-old man with a terrible secret...

    Ben overcomes oral complications to host the episode, Adam leads the discussions, Cev talks immortality (not at all borne from personal experience) and Smokey takes a good, long look at Hazel Court...

    Don't Panic Chaps

    We're un-safely back in Hammer comedy territory for now and making the sort of-most of it with a show that does what it can.

    Surely Ben will be happier with this than The Ugly Duckling?
    Is it possible this film mirrors any kind of true life situation?

    Isn't it about time another Hammer Hero is announced?

    All will be revealed.

    The Mummy

    We're safely back in Hammer Horror territory for now and making the most of it with a bumper show that really does walk like an Egyptian...

    Cev's your tour guide and this time with a very well known guest. Ben is up to his neck in bandages, Adam appears to be even more cursed than normal and Smokey's rocking out in his corner.

    Yesterday's Enemy

    Yesterday's Enemy

    Adam leads us into the thick, sweaty Burmese jungle where things aren't going too well for nearly all concerned...

    There are spoilers abound as the powerful piece goes under the House of Hammer microscope. Smokey looks at the staggering critical reaction that paved the way to four BAFTA nominations, Ben examines some ecclesiastical heroism and Cev welcomes another kind of hero to the hall of legends

    The Ugly Duckling

    The Ugly Duckling

    Sound the Bernard Bresslaw klaxon! One of the most inexplicable leading men in British cinema is back as Hammer take their first stab at the Jekyll and Hyde formula in this 1959 comedy.“Square nothing” Henry Jekyll stumbles across his great great grandfather's recipe for transformation, and uses it to turn into the super-confident Teddy Hide - with hilarious results.

    Well, results…

    Ben is on hosting duties, Smokey looks into Robert Louis Stevenson’s inspiration for the original novella, Cev gets us ready for the future adaptations to come, and Adam leads the discussion on what we thought of the film…

An absolute gem! I can’t recommend this show enough.

Thank much to the casters here for creating an intelligent blend of opinion, education, ancillary history, humor .. covering the Hammer films chronologically; all done with respect and heart.

They also have outstanding content outside of the show. I looked forward to every episode. Cheers guys 🇬🇧

Gman Brad ,

This will be great!

This is a fantastic podcast. The hosts are friends with great depths of knowledge about horror films in general and Hammer films in particular. An all time favorite.

The key to the show is Smokey
