#TOOCOOLTUESDAY:
The Monsters of Hammer : A Screen Bestiary is an amazing exhibition
housed at De Montfort University, Leicester within the University's
Cinema and Television History research centre (CATH), which now holds
some of Hammer films scripts archive. The exhibition was designed by a
third-year DMU design student named Chelsea Walker. It's an pretty
amazing accomplishment. I particularly like the text of DRACULA written in blood, that trickles off the glass screen around the exhibit, and on the FLOOR! the exhibition contains the draft script,
of an idea called 'DRACULA ON ICE: The Legend of
the Arch Vampire' by Don Houghton, the writer behind Hammer / Cushing /
Lee Dracula AD 1972, The Satanic Rites of Dracula, several tv dramas
and some BBC Doctor Who episodes too . . . These images were sent to me a few weeks
ago. I have no idea where they came from, or who took the pics . . maybe
the person who sent them? If you are in Leicester, UK you may want to
scout this exhibition out...it's very cool . . .
