HAMMER FILMS: "WELL-DONE ENTERTAINMENT"


The Los Angeles Times' film critic, Kevin Thomas, had this to say about the latest (at the time) US Hammer Films release, FRANKENSTEIN MUST BE DESTROYED: "The script is by no means flawless, but on the whole this is a reasonably intelligent and well-done entertainment." Paired with a re-release of the previous year's Hammer import, DRACULA HAS RISEN FROM THE GRAVE, this double-feature played around my neighborhood theaters in February,1970.

Also shown is the newspaper ad copy for another Hammer offering, DR. JEKYLL & SISTER HYDE, released in the US in April, 1972.
