Hammer Horror Classic Collection Box Set

[SonnyVanHelsing]

I just got this as a great gift! It has the following movies:

Taste the Blood of Dracula
Dracula Has Risen from The Grave
Horror of Dracula
The Mummy
Frankenstein Must be Destroyed
The Curse of Frankenstein

So far I've only gotten through Taste the Blood, which was a decent formulaic Lee Dracula Hammer flick.

Let us know what you think of the others when you've watched them :)

Of the Dracula films, Horror is probably the greatest. Grave is exciting and fun, with good performances from Lee and the two leads. Blood is a bit weak, although fascinating because it deals with a Hellfire Club type cabal of prominent townsmen who frequent whorehouses and dedicate themselves to all kinds of dark stuff.

The real gem in the box set though is Curse of Frankenstein where Peter Cushing gives an amazing performance as Dr. Frankenstein.

I was thinking of getting this box set but I think I'm gonna get the "Hammer Originals" first
