Show Notes

Hammer fanatics, get ready! Because the Summer of Hammer is here to seduce you, with a pair of creature features! Oliver Reed uses his charm, and a typical passionate performance, to win our hearts. Despite the fact that he would prefer to eat us. The full moon will have you howling for this early Hammer classic, Hammer's only feature film foray into werewolf lore. It's The Curse of the Werewolf (1961)! And then from there, just what is Ingrid Pitt up to, in the role that made her a cult horror icon? The answer is: vampire stuff. Obviously. Mircalla? Carmilla? Marcilla? It doesn't matter what her name is! And your gender is irrelevant, too. If Ingrid wants you, she's going to use her vampire wiles to seduce you.  Good luck trying to resist! You know, if you even want to...in The Vampire Lovers (1970)!
