FANTASY DIVAS CINEMA CRAMMED AND STICKY TOO!


THERE ARE MAGAZINES that you purchase for features, some for certain writers and maybe some for the great editorial and pics! #CINEFICCION does all those things for it's readers and subscribers 🙂 Many years ago, I remember collecting stickers, transfers and collectors cards, it was a lot of fun. I was sad when it ...vanished. Issue 9 of CINEFICCION, as an amusing tribute to such good days, has a fold-out section, with such stickers! It's a nice touch.



AS WELL AS THAT, there is a whole section on Hammer actresses, with exclusive interviews, and a section on Josh Kennedy's 'House of the Gorgon' ..and much much more besides. There are even FIVE different covers, dedicated to the Hammer actresses featured with. Nope it's not written in English. but the whole visual communication of Cineficcion is quite smart and very universal. Well done, Dario and all contributors, another superb issue 😉 Here is just a snip of some of the content... and those stickers :);) - Marcus


YOU CAN ORDER YOUR COPY HERE!

THE BRIDES OF DRACULA PREMIER : GOLDEN VAMP GOOF AND BEAST MUST DIE!


#GETHECUSHIONSUNDAY! Peter Cushing and Yvonne Monlaur rolled up at the West End Rank Cinema, London for the premier night of #hammerfilms 'The Brides of Dracula' on July 7th 1960 . . .looks like Yvonne had wondered off for a popcorn or hotdog, leaving Peter at the mercy of these two ladies from the Rank Organisation, in fancy dress..at least I HOPE they are in fancy dress....


PETER CUSHING AND YVONNE MONLAUR together at the #bridesofdracula premier night . . .with the Vampire Girls just...off..camera...


TWO GREAT PUBLICITY shots of Peter Cushing from Hammer films, 'THE BRIDES OF DRACULA' (1960) One in character as #VANHELSING and the other, as himself!


WE HAVE compiled the SIX photographs that were taken exclusively on set of #HAMMERFILMS 'The Brides of Dracula' for the PICTURE SHOW magazine feature, and reassembled them, in this banner, to give some idea of how, they could have looked . . 



#GETTHECUSHIONSUNDAY! CALLUM McKELVIE'S feature this week is on the Amicus Cushing 'WHO-DONE-IT'.... 'The Beast Must Die'! Link below... Many still talk about the WEREWOLF BREAK, an ingenious little gimmick, which gave you a minute to guess the TRUE identity of the werewolf in the cast. Even though I have watched this movie about half a dozen times...I STILL can't ever remember when watching, WHO it turns out to be. DON'T REVEAL PLEASE! Cast your mind back, to when you first saw the film...HONESTLY...DID you SUCCESSFULLY GUESS who the werewolf was??? Here's the link to great memories, photographs and stuff on this most unusual of Amicus Horror films . .

THE AMICUS VAULT OF HORRORS DOCUMENTARY: PART ONE


#GETTHECUSHIONSUNDAY! IT'S HERE! EXCLUSIVE! 'The Amicus Vault of Horrors Part One'. Donald Fearney is a producer director based in the UK, who over the past twenty five years he has done much to keep the memory of Hammer films alive . He says he is just a fan, but no other fan has managed to co-ordinate and launch not one but three celebratory events at the legendary home of Hammer films Bray Studios, which were attended by over 70 special guest actors, directors and technicians from the studios hey days. Fearney also has produced lavishly illustrated exclusive books on the works of Peter Cushing and Amicus films. His earlier documentary The Legend of Hammer Vampires, produced in 2006 detailed the history of the studio and their link with Warner, Rank and Columbia, long before anyone else thought of the concept.


HOT TICKET! One of the much sort after tickets for the first of many Fearney events held at BRAY STUDIOS home of Hammer films in the 1960's


THE LEGEND OF HAMMER VAMPIRES: DONALD FERANEY'S FIRST DOCUMENTARY : AVAILABLE TO WATCH AT THE PCAS YOUTUBE CHANNEL HERE : HERE!

YOU CAN WATCH IT NOW AT OUR PCAS YOUTUBE CHANNEL : HERE!


ANOTHER FEARNEY EVENT: THIS TIME REUNITING THE
'FRANKENSTEIN AND THE MONSTER FROM HELL' CAST

FEARNEY'S DOCUMENTARIES HAVE helped to raise the bar and set the standard of excellence in how extras on Hammer / Amicus dvd's and blu rays should be produced! No skimping on materials and rare images from a Fearney documentary! This standard has prompted several distribution company to approach only him when planning a extras-documentary on a Hammer / Amicus release. In the last few years, he has added much extra production value to the releases of The Brides of Dracula, Captain Clegg, Phantom of the Opera and The Evil of Frankenstein, Final Cut blu ray releases.



'THE AMICUS VAULT OF HORRORS' documentary took three years to produce, much of the time collecting rare photographic and archival materials. Along with editor Jim Groom, Donald Fearney has produced the definitive history of Amicus Films. The Amicus Vault of Horrors documentary covers ALL of the Amicus output, in this 2 hour 30 minute documentary. It will be uploaded here at PCAS in 4 weekly parts. I think you'll enjoy it and I would love to read any thoughts and comments you may have on this, part one! ENJOY 🙂 - Marcus
