The British television station Channel 4 lists a moment from this television episode in their 100 Scariest Moments show (it came in at #50), and this month, we’ll see how the Down Placers rank “The House That Bled to Death” from the series Hammer House of Horror among Hammer’s movie output. Also, the guys go over some listener feedback, and eventually veer so off-topic that they end up talking about . . . Universal?

Happy Halloween! This month, the Down Placers get down with Dracula as they take a look at 1968’s Dracula Has Risen from the Grave. Director Freddie Francis said he wanted this film to be “visually interesting and exciting as opposed to just expect the audience to go along and see the same old Dracula.” Did he succeed?

And what are the boys reminiscin’ about this time? It’s Hammer’s 1967 film A Challenge for Robin Hood staring Barrie Ingham, James Hayter, Leon Greene and directed by C.M. Pennington-Richards. Does this film hit the bulls-eye for the Downplacers or does it miss the target altogether?

Torn from the pages of history – the truth about the man who turned men into killers and women into animals! Well, maybe not directly from the pages of history, but from Hammer comes 1966’s Rasputin: The Mad Monk starring Sir Christopher Lee, Barbara Shelley and Richard Pasco. The film was directed by Don Sharp and written by Anthony Hinds.

Here at 1951 Down Place we chose this film to honor the passing of the great Sir Christopher Lee. Along the way, Casey, Derek and Scott will talk about what Mr. Lee means to them and to the entertainment world as they discuss their first viewing of the Mad Monk’s sermon. Do they think this film is a small sin or is it a sin worth forgiving? Find out in this episode!

Note: The film originally scheduled for June 2015, Curse of the Mummy’s Tomb will be featured on a future episode of 1951 Down Place.
