The Curse of the Werewolf
Year: 1961
Size/Type: US Insert (14" x 36")
Country of Origin: USA
Condition: Very Fine; originally tri-folded
Director: Terence Fisher
Actor/Actress: Oliver Reed, Catherine Feller, Clifford Evans, Yvonne Romain.
Comments: A very involving Hammer production that chronicles the history and life of Leon who becomes cursed at birth causing him to turn into a werewolf when the moon is full. This is a story driven movie. The action and violence is sparse, but that's not what this movie is about. Playing out like a historical drama, Curse of the Werewolf details werewolf mythology like I have never seen. The performances are excellent, particularly the young Oliver Reed (Leon) and the film has an ambient feel to it that makes it even more appealing. Don't sit down to this movie expecting a Hammer "fake" bloodbath, Curse of the Werewolf is a well written, brilliantly conceived, and nicely plotted thriller.

The Phantom of the Opera 1962
After succesfully re-making Dracula, Frankenstein & The Mummy, Hammer Studios decided to tackle "The Phantom of the Opera". This unrestored Three Sheet (in two sections) is in really superb, probably unused condition with awesome REYNOLD BROWN artwork depicting the movie's climax.
