I'm SO glad I popped it in the DVD player and gave it a shot, because it's a WONDERFUL film. Sangster proved that he had a solid grasp of the camera as well as the page with this one, and all the performances working with the location and production design make this one of my favorite Hammer Films. <br /><br />Preach on, brother . . . preach on!Derek M.

Funny, Wes, you mention the Hammer Collection Box Set as this was the last of the ones on it I was unfamiliar with that I finally watched after owning the set for a few years! I expected to be bored to pieces but was positively surprised. Maybe it helped to have small expectations but it's definitely worth a watch. Cushing's shattered glasses have become some of my favourite images of him!Holger Haasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13359071414296803464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309429033992855414.post-58851709798740907062011-07-18T19:08:17.879+01:002011-07-18T19:08:17.879+01:00Yes... this one is numbered high on my list of &qu...Yes... this one is numbered high on my list of "why do people say such bad things about it?"<br /><br />Great review.
