REMEMBERING DAVID PEEL : MAKING OF BRIDES GIFS AND MODEL KIT!

#MONSTERMONDAY: TODAY we remember actor DAVID PEEL who was born today 19th June 1920. There are few who have made such an impact as Peel. He only appeared in ONE film for Hammer films and I believe only appeared in one film with Peter Cushing. I have a memory of him turning up in a theatre production with Peter in the 1950's..but I'll look that up, in mo...

ONLY ONE ROLE, one film and yet, enter VAMPIRE HAMMER into google images, and he will appear in most of the pages. Despite the success long after The Brides of Dracula was made...audiences felt a little cheated that it was a DRACULA film, without Dracula!....I suspect that Peel wasn't impressed with either the film or the subject matter. 

AN UNHAPPY MAN, with troubles and issues. You probably know, he left the industry early on and went into antiques and real estate, but life for Peel was certainly difficult. We remember him today though, for that one Hammer film and the impressive performance as Baron Meinster, the boy vampire who certainly pushed the boundaries of vampire film!

#HAMMERFILMSATURDAY: HOW TO STAKE A VAMPIRE OR BY ANY OTHER MEANS!

#HAMMERFILMSATURDAY: Peter Cushing shares his thoughts on playing his Van Helsing for Hammer productions in five films and the character of Dracula . . .

AS HAMMER HAS shown us, it doesn't HAVE to be death by staking. If you haven't got the Vampire Hunter standard issue mallet and stake, you can always use.... sunlight, a shower tap, a spoke from a cartwheel, a bronze cross, hawthorn, a broken piece of wooden fencing, holy water, light through a stain-glass window, a spear, a spade, a pit full of wooden stakes or indeed a WINDMILL...etc....
