The inspiration for Last Night in Soho by Edgar Wright.

More than fifty years ago, with the release of "The Curse of Frankenstein" and Christopher Lee's iconic performance in "Dracula," Hammer introduced an entirely new era of blood and almost impenetrable shocks in dazzling color, combining sex and horror with a style that made the small British company globally renowned.

Characterized by rare and previously unpublished photos from Hammer's archives and private collections worldwide, and featuring many new interviews, "Hammer Glamour" is a luxurious, colorful celebration of Hammer's female stars, including Ingrid Pitt, Martine Beswick, Caroline Munro, Barbara Shelley, Joanna Lumley, Nastassja Kinski, and of course Raquel Welch (who can forget her fur bikini in "One Million Years B.C."?).
