Hammer: Heroes, Legends and Monsters

Enjoyable and fascinating new documentary focussing primarily on the period that the great studios were most famous for ie the horror films. The film makers have managed to track down many of the makers, executives, set designers, make up artists etc or their children who all talk with great reverence about the making of many good and not so good films. As usual, a strong pile of modern film makers - John Landis, John Carpenter, Tim Burton and Joe Dante talk with great affection about the many great films and with a smile about the more dubious ones that the studio produced on very limited budgets. As to the documentary itself, it very informative, full of fun anecdotes with many clips and interviews with all being interviewed in spooky sets. Good fun for true Hammer horror fans.
