- 18 minutes 6 secondsBONUS EP 445 - BLOOD FROM THE MUMMY'S TOMB (1971) BLURAY REVIEW - RELEASE DATE 6th APRIL 2026
Duncan is back to review a late-era entry from Hammer Film Productions, Blood from the Mummy’s Tomb which stands apart from the studio’s earlier monster-led formula by reworking classic Mummy lore through a more psychological and intriguingly subversive lens. Directed by Seth Holt and based on a story by Bram Stoker, the film shifts the horror inward centred on identity, possession, and female power. Arriving during a period of declining commercial success for Hammer, the film didn’t redefine the studio’s fortunes, but has since earned recognition as one of its more unusual and thematically rich horrors.
This new Collector’s Edition brings the film to 4K for the first time with a brand-new Dolby Vision restoration, offering a strong presentation of one of Hammer’s more visually distinctive late-period releases. The set is packed with both archival and newly produced extras, alongside collectible physical content.
Features include:- 4K UHD & Blu-ray discs
- New 4K Dolby Vision restoration
- Multiple new featurettes and interviews
- Audio commentary
- Archival materials including TV/radio spots and galleries
- 64-page booklet with essays and original press kit
- Brand-new artwork,
- Two posters & a release date of 6th April 2026.
The grading follows the Netflix rating style of 1 = Hated It, 2 = Didn’t Like It, 3 = Liked It, 4 = Really Liked It & 5 = Loved It

1 April 2026, 9:57 pm - 15 minutes 32 secondsBONUS EP 444 - FEAR IN THE NIGHT (1972) BLURAY REVIEW - RELEASE DATE 23rd MARCH 2026
Duncan is here to review a fascinating outlier in the Hammer Film Productions catalogue, Fear in the Night trades gothic horror for something far more intimate and unsettling. Directed by Jimmy Sangster, this psychological chiller leans heavily on atmosphere and performance, with Judy Geeson delivering a genuinely gripping turn as a woman unsure whether she’s being hunted or losing her grip on reality. Supported by the ever-reliable Peter Cushing and a quietly enigmatic Joan Collins, the film stands as one of Hammer’s more unusual experiments—less iconic, perhaps, but rich in tension and worth rediscovery.
This new Collector’s Edition from Studio Canal marks the film’s worldwide 4K debut, giving Sangster’s eerie, stripped-back thriller a fresh lease of life. The release includes a brand-new 4K restoration presented on both 4K UHD and Blu-ray, alongside a strong set of extras and physical additions for collectors.
Features include:
- 4K UHD & Blu-ray discs
- New 4K restoration
- Audio commentaries
- Featurettes including: The Fragile Mind and End of Term
- Theatrical trailer, stills gallery
- 64-page booklet with new essays
- Brand-new artwork
- Two posters & a release date of 23rd March 2026.
