#TOOCOOLTUESDAY: TWO HAMMER ICON BIRTHDAYS AND THE TUESDAY TOUGHIE




TODAY WE REMEMBER Robert Oliver Reed, born today February 13th 1938. The 'Cushing Connection' spreads over three films, 'Captain Clegg /Night Creatures' in 1962, 'Sword of Sherwood Forest' in 60, both for Hammer films and a car crash of a film entitled 'A Touch of the Sun' in 1979... a film produced in Africa, and never found a distributor outside of it! A larger than life character both on and off the screen..who was always happy to acknowledge his 'Hammer film roots.... 'The Curse of the Werewolf in 1961 and 'These Are The Damned' in 1963. Happy Birthday Oliver!

MANY OF YOU MAY have had fun with us, when we posted a whole GALLERY OF FAKE BLU RAY BOXES AND COVERS connected to the many PETER CUSHING films and projects that sadly, for whatever reasons,  didn't come to fruition. THIS particular HAMMER FILM isn't included in the frustrating roll call. And one wonders, if both Cushing and Lee had been cast. how that film may have turned out. All will be revealed TOMORROW when we share the ANSWER here and at the PCASUK FACEBOOK FAN PAGE
