PETER CUSHING TALKS PSYCHO : LEE PLAYS SANTA AND PLAYS FOR LAUGHS WITH DRACULA


PETER CUSHING TALKS ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S PSYCHO! Yes, you read that title right! Maybe the last film you would ever have thought, you would ever hear Peter Cushing discussing, as he often shared that he didn't watch violent films or even more surprising, 'Horror Fantasies', like the themed films he himself appeared in! But here we are, part of an interview, we'll be sharing in it's entirety, at the   Facebook PCASUK Fan Page  very soon! You can catch this extract at the Facebook Page now,HERE!  
 

ABOVE: From our PCASUK supplement website/blog TheBlackBoxClub.Com, here is a selection of rare on set and scene stills from Hitchcock's PSYCHO, which might just put you in moood to watch the film or indeed if you have not seen the film, see if you agree with Cushing's opinion?  Just CLICK HERE! 
 

LAST WEEKEND on the Facebook PCASUK Fan Page themed #CHRISTOPHERLEE Saturday, I made and shared this little gem image banner! HO HO OH! Who would have thought that Christopher Lee once guested as FATHER CHRISTMAS and entertained children and families at London's Selfridge's department store? I am not sure what year this could have been, but I'll put a guess on late 60's to early 1970's? Maybe you know better? Either way, the sharing of these images has stirred quite an interest on the Facebook PCASUK Fan Page, with some followers making reference to Lee's early working days in the UK store, Simpsons, too.
 

ANOTHER SHARED LEE PHOTOGRAPH
, that also stirred up interest this weekend, is this on set still of Lee in his canvas set chair, in a costume or film I couldn't place! We all agreed, we LOVED the coat and the cane. But it took,
Nicholas Dubreuil, from France to supply us with the film and role! It is the 1976, ' DRACULA PÈRE ET FILS',(Dracula Father and Son) with Lee costumed as the titled character, here sitting in the forest of Rambouillet near Paris, no less! To my shame, I must admit to never having seen this film, as everytime I tried to get my hands on a copy, it proved to be so bad a print, with even worse audio, it proved unwatchable. But, I hope to remedy this year. One of many Christopher Lee films, I have yet to catch!
