MONSTERMONDAY: WANDA VENTHAM PETER CUSHING: COMPETITON SCREENBOUND PRIZES!


This week's ‪#‎monstermonday‬ features WANDA VENTHAM as the 'terror' factor of the title, 'The Blood Beast Terror'. It's an interesting film, with a monster that never truly gets the screen time or during production, the money invested in its look! The film also features a performance from our man that often gets overlooked. His Detective Inspector Quennell has some very nice touches, and Cushing slips in some lovely black comedy. Robert Flemyng steps in for a absent Basil Rathbone, and Vanessa Howard makes a great naive teenage daughter, for PC, wide eyed and fluttering lashes...and talking of fluttering, without giving too much away, Wanda's Death Head moth, isn’t that bad, I have seen much worse.

So, a performance from PC that's definitely worth a watch, good supporting cast...and the monster? The jury is still out on that one. What do you think? 


Earlier today, launched our competiton on facebook and here at the website.  You can now try your luck at winning your very own #SCREENBOUND blu ray or dvd remastered release of the film. HERE is the competiton, if you have missed it. It closes MONDAY 8th MAY 2016 at MIDNIGHT!

GOODNESS ME! DOCTOR WHO ASSISTANT IS A CORKER!


FOLLOWING REQUESTS after our full colour glamour shot of Jill Curzon with DALEK yesterday...here are some more! Curzon co starred with Bernard Cribbins in the 1966 film Daleks Invasion Earth 2150 AD...sequel to the first Dr Who film also starring Peter Cushing, Dr Who and the Daleks in 1965. Curzon posed for several sessions of publicity photographs in order to promote the film, these pics appeared in the daily newspapers,film magazines and glamour magazines like SPAN. For the princely sum of two shillings, you could flick to the pages of delights that included Ms Curzon in glorious colour and several black and white publicity shots.



These magazines in time became much sort after items of memorabilia, the photographs represent the only time the Daleks have appeared on film, and at the time the first opportunity to see the one eyed terrors in colour!
