Additional InformationThis collection includes five Hammer horror films: THE DEVIL RIDES OUT, THE HORROR OF FRANKENSTEIN, SCARS OF DRACULA, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE, and BLOOD FROM THE MUMMY'S TOMB.<BR>THE DEVIL RIDES OUT: Revered as one of the best horror films produced by Hammer, THE DEVIL RIDES OUT is a chilling battle between good and evil set in the 1930s. Christopher Lee, perhaps best known for his role as Dracula, gets to show his good side as the heroic and cavalier Duc de Richleau, who maintains the air of a gentleman throughout his tireless battle with a Satanic coven, led by the wonderfully villainous Mocata (Charles Gray).<BR>THE HORROR OF FRANKENSTEIN: Coming at the tail end of Hammer's Frankenstein cycle (it was preceeded by the classic CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, REVENGE OF FRANKENSTEIN, and FRANKENSTEIN MUST BE DESTROYED), HORROR OF FRANKENSTEIN takes the familiar story in a much different direction than its predecessors. The film finds young Victor Frankenstein (Ralph Bates) becoming fed up with his boorish father and his boring classes. Longing to escape to Vienna to experiment in his lab, Victor offs his father and quits school. Soon Victor has successfully reanimated a turtle and begins work on his ultimate creation--a human made out of dead body parts. Taking place in a vaguely mod-ish 18th century where the characters carry on as if they were London during the swingin' 1960s, the film has its tongue planted firmly in cheek.<BR>SCARS OF DRACULA: Christopher Lee returns to his signature role in this Hammer Studios production, the last of their period-era Dracula films. In the movie, a young lothario named Paul (Christopher Matthews) leaves a party and ends up asleep in the back of a carriage that drives him to Dracula's castle. When Paul doesn't return the next day, his girlfriend Sarah (Jenny Hanley) and his brother, Simon (Dennis Waterman), begin a search for him. They happen upon the vampire's castle, where the Count denies having seen Paul, but insists that the pair spend the night. However, during the night, Simon finds evidence that Paul was indeed in the castle and begins to piece together the mystery. Stylish and brutally violent, SCARS OF DRACULA is another excellent entry into Hammer's Dracula series.<BR>LUST FOR A VAMPIRE: Swedish stunner Yutte Stensgaard appears in this Hammer Studios production as the reincarnation of the notorious female vampire Carmilla Karnstein. A follow-up to THE VAMPIRE LOVERS, this film, like its predessor, is based on the writings of Sheridan le Fanu. Here le Fanu's famed vampiress takes the form of Mircalla, a stunning young finishing school student at an all-girls school. Mircalla satisfies her lust for blood by preying on her classmates, all of whom are drawn to her stunning looks. However, Mircalla's sensuality also attracts the attentions of Lestrange (Michael Johnson), a teacher at the school with whom she falls in love. An entertainingly tawdry Hammer vampire movie, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE is most notable for Ms. Stensg
