From the Back Cover
These are the mystical creatures born of legend and seared in nightmares. In the gallery of classic monsters, they bear the curse of the doomed and the horrors of the damned. In
The World of Hammer, they are Mummies, Werewolves and the Living Dead.
Over the course of three decades, Hammer Films achieved new heights of horror by redefining the classic legends of the mummy, the werewolf and the zombie. More than mere "monster movies," these films were frightening new takes on familiar tales, complete with chilling scares, startling violence and the one-of-a-kind visual style that became a worldwide Hammer trademark.
These are supreme examples of Hammer horror, as you'll see in classic clips from The Mummy, Curse of the Werewolf, Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires, Captain Clegg (aka: Night Creatures), Blood From the Mummy's Tomb, Plague of the Zombies, and more.
