6 DISC COLLECTION INCLUDES 5 FEATURE FILMS, 6 BBC TELEPLAYS, 200-PAGE BOOK AND 16+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES
From Hammer Films to STAR WARS, he remains one of genre films' best-loved actors. Now celebrate six of the most unexpected, rarely seen and decidedly curious performances from the legendary career of PETER CUSHING: Cushing delivers a rare villain turn in the 1960 aviation thriller CONE OF SILENCE. That same year, Cushing brought gentle dignity to The Boulting Brothers' cold-war drama SUSPECT. In 1962's THE MAN WHO FINALLY DIED, Cushing co-stars opposite Stanley Baker as a former Nazi hiding a grave post-war secret. Cushing returns to his iconic role of SHERLOCK HOLMES in these six surviving episodes of the 1968 BBC TV series. The oft-maligned 1971 shocker BLOODSUCKERS can now be reassessed for the first time in its Restored Extended Version. And Cushing portrays a vampire for the first and only time in 1974's off-the-wall erotic comedy TENDER DRACULA, premiering here in its Director's Cut. Each disc has been mastered from original vault elements with over 16 total hours of trailers, commentaries, vintage interviews, location features and more, plus the all-new 200-page book PETER CUSHING: A PORTRAIT IN SIX SKETCHES by award-winning horror film historian Jonathan Rigby.

Press Quotes
Peter Cushing is an instantly recognizable screen persona. His name on a cast list is a constant and reassuring guarantee of quality.
—The Independent
CONE OF SILENCE: ★★★★ Some heart-stopping moments... Taut and expertly made. Peter Cushing and George Sanders, both cast against type, give superb performances.
—Radio Times
CONE OF SILENCE: Rarely seen with a top-notch cast... One of Cushing's first non-genre efforts from this period, with a 'who's who' of Hammer thespians.
—DVD Drive-In
SUSPECT: A crime-drama-thriller with a solid cast... Those keen on Cushing and British Noir-leaning thrillers should investigate SUSPECT.
—DVD Beaver
An overlooked near-classic... Cushing is as classy and impeccably mannered as you'd expect, and the film is worth seeing just for him and Stanley Baker.
—Entertainment Focus
SHERLOCK HOLMES: Cushing is delightfully cocky... There's fun in each episode watching him and Nigel Stock bring Holmes and Watson to life.
—Movie Views
SHERLOCK HOLMES: A great outing... Cushing plays Holmes as continually intrigued by the possibilities surrounding any given mystery. He seems like he's having a lot of fun.
—Bullz-Eye
BLOODSUCKERS: Impressive and striking... One of the more unusual films in vampire lore. It's also one of the most debated films in the genre.
—Moria Reviews
BLOODSUCKERS: An effective thriller... The chief twist here is that vampirism is treated not as a supernatural affliction, but a bizarre form of sexual gratification.
—All Movie
TENDER DRACULA: Strangely fascinating... It's surprising this never became a cult favorite, given its abundance of nudity, sadism and off-the-wall humor.
—FrenchFilms.org
TENDER DRACULA: Wacky and bizarre... Somebody was smoking something while making this, that's for sure.
—The Worldwide Celluloid Massacre
