Episode 008 – Hammer Vampires




Planet Macabre show

Summary: The Planet Macabre team has a fun show in store for you this episode with Lady Phantom making her return, and a few incredible announcements, all the while discussing Hammer Production Studios 1970 vampire films. The hosts were very adamant on this show with many bleeps throughout holding onto their convictions. After the introductions, announcements and news the critics start analyzing The Vampire Lovers which stars Ingrid Pitt who just recently passed. Next up is Countess Dracula based on the true story of Erzsebet “Elizabeth” Bathory who apparently was responsible for the deaths of over 600 girls in the late 1500’s. The third review is Dracula AD starring the famous Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. The same year came Vampire Circus with David Prowse aka Darth Vader playing the “Strong Man” at a circus sideshow. Rounding it off and hitting the chopping block hard is The Satanic Rites Of Dracula which has vampires, spies and scientists with a James Bond feel. During BillChete’s Indie Assault segment there were 3 additional zombie/comedy movies provided for the diehard zombie lovers all around the globe. They are Colin, Doghouse and Necroville.
