Amicus second anthology takes a fine cast to a funfair of fear care of Robert Bloch's twisted tales. Their least loved but it's superbly sinister fun. 1967.

Final destination for a terrific cast when Cushing as Death deals fate to doomed souls on a train to hell. Fabulous first of Amicus' fine anthologies. 1965.

Brilliantly barmy British anthology with Pleasence presiding as Joan Collins is molested by a tree and Novak eats her daughter. Priceless. 1973.

Happy birthday to the fantastic Peter Cushing!
This is part 1 of a little thread on the films of his we've covered on General Witchfinders.
Honestly thought we’d done more. What’s your favourite?

Looking for a starter pack for Bluesky folk who love Peter Cushing and point at the screen and shout ‘Michael Ripper’ should Michael Ripper appear.
People who have seen Island of Terror 100s of times but still watch if if it’s on.

Born on this date in 1913, Peter Wilton Cushing OBE appeared in SO many Hammer films as well as The Hammer House of Horror, but which one’s your favourite performance?
Here he is in a shot from our next installment THE GORGON (1964)

To mark the occasion, I’m sidestepping the countless horrors from #amicusfilms, #hammerfilms and dozens of other British studios and going for SUSPECT (1960) that has a cast list full of surprises….
Forever grateful to @jackjewers.bsky.social for the bust too 🖤

Don’t get me wrong, I love talking about Hammer & Amicus films in equal measure, but it’s lovely to discuss something we caught on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social from 1950 as a result of the recent Kiss Of The Vampire episode...

Remembering Elisabeth Lutyens who left us on April 14th 1983, but not without leaving a staggering body of work in both the concert halls of Europe & British horror cinema for decades. Her contributions to Hammer & Amicus Films remain breathtaking.
