PETER CUSHING: 'CALL HIM, MR SHATTER!' HAMMER FILMS VINTAGE MAGAZINE FEATURE






ONE OF HAMMER FILMS LEAST SUCCESSFUL VENTURES. MADE AS PART OF A TWO PICTURE DEAL WITH 'THE LEGEND OF THE SEVEN GOLDEN VAMPIRES AND THE RUN RUN SHAW STUDIOS IN 1973- 1974. PETER CUSHING PLAYED RATTWOOD WITH STUART WHITMAN IN THE LEAD. SUPPORTING CAST FEATURED HAMMER 'THE MAN WHO COULD CHEAT DEATH' ANTON DIFFRING. THE RESULT WAS A MESS. MANY THOUGHT CUSHING WAS MISCAST AND WASTED. ''SHATTER' AKA 'CALL HIM, MR SHATTER' WAS DIRECTED BY THEN HAMMER HEAD MICHAEL CARRERAS, WITH UNCREDITED DIRECTOR MONTE HELLMAN LENDING A HAND!
