4.0 out of 5 stars THIS is the way to Hammer... Brillo!!!, 22 Mar 2007
By Jeremy W. Newbould "Django" (Spain) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Ultimate Hammer Collection (21 Disc Box Set) [DVD] (DVD)
This is a neatly packaged box set which is something of a must-have item for any Hammer Horror fan or indeed any fan of classic British cinema.

The set contains 21 films on 21 DVDs, including some of Hammer's most famous and best-loved movies - films such as Dracula Prince Of Darkness, She, Plague Of The Zombies, The Devil Rides Out and Quatermass And The Pit.

There is also an information booklet, a set of postcards and some interesting extras on some of the discs. For instance the Dracula Prince Of Darkness disc contains the excellent documentary 'The Many Faces Of Christopher Lee' featuring the man himself talking about his long and varied film career with clips from some of his most renowned films. On the To The Devil... A Daughter disc there is an amusing onstage interview with regular Hammer stuntman Eddie Powell who candidly recalls the time when he had to double for Chris Lee in a nude scene!

There are a few turkeys as well in this particular box set - Prehistoric Women and The Vengeance Of She are exceptionally bad and Straight On Till Morning is just plain weird. On the whole though this is a very good package at a very reasonable price and is probably the best Hammer DVD box set available to date.

5.0 out of 5 stars Based on content for my £80 purchase price alone, 29 Dec 2006
By I. R. Kerr (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Ultimate Hammer Collection (21 Disc Box Set) [DVD] (DVD)
Ok so it would have been good to get ALL the Hammer Dracula, Frankenstein and the Mummy films here but we haven't.
What we do have is a great cross-section of the studio's movies. Some OK like The Viking Queen and The Vengeance of She, some great Plague of the Zombies, The Reptile, and some truly superb She, Dracula Prince of Darkness, Quatermass and the Pit. There are no real stinkers here... SORRY I wrote this before I watched Prehistoric Women again....ouch!
The only down side with boxes like this is that we all have different ideas of our favourite movies. Personally I would have left out a few thrillers and put in more horror, although some of these movies I have not seen for well over a decade so may grow on me after a few viewings.
I would have liked The Gorgon and Creatures The World Forgot but there will, no doubt, be filler box sets to follow.
There's a few documentaries which add extra information and are a welcome addition.
It is by no means THE definitive Hammer collection although it could be just that to a few people.
As so many horror box sets are being released what I need now are the Universal Mummy series, Christopher Lee's Fu Manchu movies and the Paul Naschy Werewolf movies, any studio executives out there reading these comments?

5.0 out of 5 stars Rather excellent!, 15 Oct 2007
By S J Buck (Kent, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Ultimate Hammer Collection (21 Disc Box Set) [DVD] (DVD)
For the films on their own, at full price, this set doesn't warrant five stars. Some of these, as a previous reviewer has already said, are absolute turkeys, noteably 'Prehestoric Women' which is truly dreadful. However the set is beautifully packaged, has some nice extras, and if you can get it cheaper it does deserve 5 stars and is a must have for the film fan.

The 21 films are a fair reflection of Hammers output. The best film in the set is "The Devil Rides Out". This is a 5 star movie and along with "Dracula" and "The Hound of the Baskervilles" (neither in the set sadly) are the best films Hammer ever made.

"Plague of the Zombies", "Dracula Prince of Darkness", The Nanny, "Frankenstein Created Woman" and Quatermass and the Pit" whilst not of the same standard as "The Devil Rides Out" are all good films which merit repeated viewings.

Of the other films I've seen, "The Horror of Frankenstein" and "Scars of Dracula" are both rather poor. There are a number of films that I've never seen, so I obviously can't comment on these.

Like Hammers overall output the other films in the set, that I have seen, have some good moments and it will be very much a personal thing as to which you will like and which you will not.

If look up the list of Hammer films on the internet you will find that they produced well over 100 films in the 1960's and 1970's and even more in the 1950's, so this set is by no means the last word. However at the moment its the best set available and at the right price I strongly recommend it.
