This new, illustrated edition brings the book back into print for the first time in two decades. Featuring Hutchings's socially charged analyses of genre classics from Dead of Night (1945) and The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) to The Sorcerers (1967) and beyond, it also includes several of Hutchings's later essays on British horror, as well as a new critical introduction penned by film historian Johnny Walker and an afterword by Russ Hunter. Hammer and beyond deserves a spot on the bookshelf of anyone with a serious interest in the development of Britain's contribution to the horror genre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeter Hutchings (1961-2018) was Professor of Film Studies at Northumbria University \u003cbr\u003eJohnny Walker is Senior Lecturer in Media at Northumbria University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50380291670290,"sku":"9781526151186","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_3a8a4faf-32aa-4810-b246-6d9a3e71cfab.jpg?v=1728679768","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/hammer-and-beyond-the-british-horror-film-9781526151186","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
