Fisher directed many of the classic horror films that set a new seal on what
we expected in horror from the 1950s on.
THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, HORROR OF DRACULA, REVENGE OF FRANKENSTEIN,
HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES, THE MAN WHO COULD CHEAT DEATH, STRANGLERS OF
BOMBAY, THE MUMMY, THE TWO FACES OF DR. JEKYLL, THE BRIDES OF DRACULA, THE
CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, THE GORGON, DRACULA PRINCE OF
DARKNESS, FRANKENSTEIN CREATED WOMAN, THE DEVIL RIDES OUT, FRANKENSTEIN MUST
BE DESTROYED AND FRANKENSTEIN AND THE MONSTER FROM HELL. Would horror films be what they are today without the visual
and story mastery of Terence Fisher? He
was, indeed, “Hammer’s Master of Gothic Horror.” With the assistance of Fisher’s daughter,
Micky Harding, we are presenting a complete issue totally devoted to Fisher,
his life and films. Adult
