    Cloudburst May 12, 2022

    Take Adam’s hand as he leads you through a strangely civilised rampage of revenge. We’ve landed on Hammer’s exquisitely entertaining 1951 thriller, ‘Cloudburst’

    As well extolling the virtues of this criminally under-seen masterpiece of British cinema, we also have a tribute from Cev to our newest Hammer Hero, Sheila Burrell, a trip to the squared circle with Smokey, and a cryptic dive into the world of codebreaking from Ben!

    The Dark Light Apr 29, 2022

    We’re finally taking to the high seas for some equally high adventure featuring mystery, murder and mermaids!

    The Rossiter Case Mar 28, 2022

    Smokey’s in the driving seat this time as the team take a look at Hammer’s 1951 drama, The Rossiter Case. And their opinions on the film itself may well surprise you…

    Ben lands a bullseye with his look at that most famous of pub pastimes - darts! Cev takes a look at the murky world of driving laws, and Smokey’s back with another request for “Help”

    And don’t forget to mark the date in your calendars - our next group watch-along is Saturday April 9th, when we’ll not only be watching Dick Barton Strikes Back with you all, but also hosting an after-movie Zoom hangout, and a special quiz!

    What The Butler Saw Feb 25, 2022

    Cev is at the door to welcome you, m’luds, as we take a gentlemanly stroll into the wilds of Hammer’s 1950 “comedy”, What The Butler Saw…

    Yes, yes, yes, your initial impressions that this is to be a peepshow-arama are well founded, but where exactly does the phrase “What The Butler Saw” actually come from? Who was Henry Mollison, otherwise known as “The Butler”? And how much do you actually know about big game hunting?

    Oh, and what is the film itself actually like?

    Believe it or not, all these questions shall be answered in this quite unique episode of The House Of Hammer…

    Someone At The Door Feb 11, 2022

    Ben’s your butler this time, as he whisks you through the next room in The House Of Hammer!

    Our feature is 1950’s Someone At The Door directed by Francis Searle, and starring Michael Medwin, Hugh Latimer, Yvonne Owen, Danny Green and Garry Marsh. But is it a case of “Come right in” or “Let’s hide behind the sofa and pretend we’re not at home”?

    As well as the movie itself, Cev will be inducting a new Hammer Hero, Ben will be taking you through some secret passages, Smokey turns agony aunt, and Adam explains the sometimes preposterous terms used to describe violent crime!

    The Man In Black Jan 14, 2022

    Welcome along to room thirteen in The House Of Hammer, as your host, Adam, unlocks the door behind which resides a very special inhabitant…

    1950’s The Man In Black is arguably the first real “Hammer” movie, but why? What makes it stand out? Could it be the fact that the whole plot hinges around MURDER BY YOGA? Could it be the presence of a diabolical villain? Or could it be because it contains the very first glimpse of a house that Hammer fans know all too well?

    Join Adam, Ben, Cev and Smokey as they tour you through men in black, sinister ghost stories, unmistakeable cackles and unforgettable locations…
