VAMPIRES SOCK AND WAGONS ROLL: PETER CUSHING JULIE EGE AND DAVID CHIANG : HAMMER FILMS LEGEND OF THE SEVEN GOLDEN VAMPIRES


WAGONS ROLL: Peter Cushing, Julie Ege and David Chiang in Hammer Films THE LEGEND OF THE SEVEN GOLDEN VAMPIRES (1974) LEGEND was the first of two Hammer productions shot back-to-back in Hong Kong in partnership with Shaw Brothers, the other being SHATTER also starring Peter Cushing. LEGEND was the fifth and last time Peter Cushing would play Van Helsing. Because of the practice of 'shooting mute' in Hong Kong, all the soundtrack, music and dialogue was added later in post production. John Forbes Robertson, the actor who played Dracula in Christopher Lee's absence was furious when he discovered that he had been dubbed by another actor.

DR WHO AND THE DALEKS: PETER CUSHING AND ROY CASTLE : OUR FAVOURITE TIN THING

Oh my! Ideas of what could be inside those armored shells of the Daleks have certainly come a long way since Peter's movie back in 1965. It was almost as if the makers thought the creature inside was also sat on a little seat, wheeling the figure around..not unlike the real controllers! I was only 6 years of age when I saw this film, the first movie I saw in the cinema. It is this scene and the creepy claw like hand I remember above all else... Peter Cushing as Dr Who and Roy Castle in DR WHO AND THE DALEKS (1965)

PETER'S TWO AUTOBIOGRAPHIES RE RELEASED AS COMPLETE MEMOIRS FOR CENTENARY YEAR 2013


PETER'S TWO AUTOBIOGRAPHIES RE RELEASED AS THE COMPLETE MEMOIRS FOR HIS CENTENARY APRIL 23RD NEXT YEAR: "This lavish new book collects both volumes of Peter Cushing's memoirs - "An Autobiography" and "Past Forgetting" - with extensive unseen material from his private collection. Cushing was widely known as 'the gentleman of horror', his kind and sensitive nature a sharp contrast with the Hammer Horror roles that dominated his work from the 1950s onwards. This is Cushing's own account of his remarkable career, and the devastating sense of loss he suffered following the death of his wife. It offers unparalleled insight to the meticulous professionalism and private torment of a legendary film star."
