Hammer films watched in my life so far

[strange_complex]

I did something I've been meaning to do for a while today: grabbed Wikipedia's list of Hammer films and went thought it bolding all the ones I'd seen and additionally noting those I've seen in the cinema (well - on a big screen, not always in a traditional cinema). The answers are that I've seen 68 out of 175, mainly but not exclusively gothic horrors, of which 16 on the big screen. I am not going to try to link from this list to the other posts where I have reviewed many of them here. That's too big a task. But I will keep updating this post as I go along!

I'm honestly slightly surprised you've not seen them all. If I were going to bet on anyone having seen all of the Hammer films I'd back you.

[strange_complex]

Well, there are a lot of them! And the ones from before 1955 aren't very readily available. Still, I'm getting there!

[lady_lugosi1313]

TPTV has shown at least a couple of the pre 1951 ones recently - but I only knew they were Hammer ones as 'Hammer Production' was in either the opening or closing titles which surprised me. I can't remember their names tho and they weren't very memorable - just kind of standard murder type ones.

[magister]

81 for me. The main blank spots are that I've seen nothing prior to Quatermass Xperiment and practically none of the comedies.

[strange_complex]

Good going! I think the only comedy I've seen is That's Your Funeral, but we enjoyed that.

[magister]

Have to say, I'm genuinely surprised you've not seen Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed.

[strange_complex]

Yeah, I'm conscious of being a bit deficient in the Hammer Frankenstein department, which is why there are quite a few entries from that cycle on the list. But I haven't got to that one yet!

[strange_complex]

Sorry, was getting a bit mixed up about which post I was commenting on - I meant that's why there are quite a few Hammer Frankensteins on my 'Films watched 2024' post, not this list.
