Preview: Hammer Festival 13-14th July...

Hammer Festival


Hammer has risen from the grave.
Join us at Phoenix for a two-day celebration of all things Hammer, graced with a galaxy of stars! Among the films being shown are Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter, Quatermass 2, Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell, Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde, the stunning new HD restoration of Plague of the Zombies Twins of Evil, and the festival closes with special guest Mark Gatiss (The League of Gentlemen, Sherlock, Dr. Who), presenting the world premiere of the HD restoration of the seminal The Curse of Frankenstein (1957). Stars appearing for Q&As, introducing films and signing memorabilia include Jacqueline Pearce, Caroline Munro, Madeline Smith, Martine Beswick, Caron Gardner and director John Hough plus many more! This fantastic festival celebrates the forthcoming digitization of the Hammer Script Archive by the Cinema and Television History (CATH) Research Centre at DMU. This unique resource will soon be made available for on-line academic study.
