The Hammer-Amicus Blogathon V Has Arrived – Day 2 Recap

 

We’re back for Day 2 of the 5th Hammer-Amicus Blogathon, hosted by Yours Truly and Gill Jacob of Realweegiemidget Reviews! We had a terrific assortment of posts yesterday, and today’s batch is no less impressive, with two Hammer titles and four Amicus films (including two of their horror anthologies).

 

Thanks to all of you who’ve contributed, so far. If you’ve signed up, but your post still requires some last-minute tweaking, we’ll post your link on Day Three, or the bonus “Wrap-up” day. Please note: Due to our differing time zones (U.S. Pacific Coast vs. Finland), it’s possible some posts might appear on different days, but fear not. If you write ‘em, we’ll be sure to post ‘em. Post a comment below, email me at barry_cinematic@yahoo.com, or reach me on BlueSky (@barrycinematic.bsky.social), Instagram (barry_cinematic), or Twitter/X (@barry_cinematic). You may also contact Gill by commenting on her post, through her blog’s Contact Me page, or on Bluesky (@realweegiemidge.bsky.social).

Be sure to check out Day 1’s submissions, and revisit us Sunday and Monday, respectively, for Day Three and the bonus recap! Now, on to Day 2…

Baron Greystone from The Michlin Guide is back with the second movie in his double-bill, Captain Kronos – Vampire Hunter (1974). 

Stacia from She Blogged by Night adds some Hammer Noir to the mix, with her review of Man Bait (aka: The Last Page) (1952). 

Kristina from Speakeasy invites you to join Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee in Amicus’ The Skull (1965) 

Blast off into outer space with John Harmon (from Tales from the Freakboy Zone) as he investigates The Terrornauts (1967). 

 

Join Sally Silverscreen from 18 Cinema Lane, if you dare, to explore Dr. Terror’s House of Horrors (1965). 

Terence Towles Canote from A Shroud of Thoughts returns with a look at the Amicus anthology, The House that Dripped Blood (1971). 

 

See you tomorrow!
