From the 1950s when they pumped Technicolor blood into old monsters like Frankenstein and Dracula, to today's chillers like 'Let The Right One In" and "The Lady In Black", Hammer Films combined ghastly horror with erotic tension. Your hosts and narrators are Count Dracula and Baron Frankenstein (Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing) known to Star Wars fans as Count Douku and Grand Moff Tarkin. This remastered Director's Cut features stereo sound, new candid interviews, rare clips, photos and home movies. Well over two hours of gothic ghouls, gore and glamour.
