Hammer Film Productions - Any fans?

Anyone a fan of Hammer films? I have around 70-75 in my digital collection now, but the majority of the ones I've seen are the sci-fi, horror and thrillers from the 60's and 70's, extreme cheesiness, but fun.

Both Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing were staples in their horror films. Lee mostly as Dracula and Cushing as Baron Victor Frankenstein and Doctor Van Helsing

Oh Yes, I'm a big fan. Dracula Prince of Darkness is a fave as it introduces Father Shandor. A character I enjoyed most in the short lived strip in Warrior Magazine.

How can you not love Hammer Films? 'One Million Years B.C.', 'Brides Of Dracula', 'The Abominable Snowman', etc,,,,. All great stuff.

Does not sound familiar. Good?

Funny in a late 60's easy 70's British comedy way. It takes all the tropes from hammer and ratchets the parody up.
