The Abominable Dr. Phibes is pure, unfiltered chaotic genius. A world where revenge is measured in mechanical organs, brass animals, and the kind of set design that looks like Salvador Dalà went on a shopping spree with a draftsman from Metropolis. Released in 1971, Robert Fuest didn’t care about realism, grit, or subtlety, he cared…

I’ll be honest here. I have no idea what the fuck I just watched. This was one of the most out there movies it’s ever been my pleasure to sit through, and I loved every second of it. ​Gunfighter Paradise isn’t just a movie; it’s a full-on psychological ambush. Written and directed by Jethro Waters,…

​Hammer was in trouble in ’71. They were like a zombie at a disco, trying to look cool, but their limbs were falling off. They’d just had a hit with The Vampire Lovers, but Ingrid Pitt had bailed, Terence Fisher had literally broken his leg, and the studio was actively trying to modernise and court…

Step away from the Technicolor vampires and the campy castle sets, because we are heading to the year 1645, a time when the English countryside wasn’t a place for a picnic; it was a place for mass executions. While the 1960s were supposedly about peace and love, a director barely in his mid-twenties named Michael…
