Sometimes Hammer Films were the cutting edge of film making and others definitely facing the wrong way. It's always handy to look at where the studio fitted in the surrounding film landscape.

As such, Cev's here to assess their late 50's comedies, mostly focusing on 1958.

1967's Christmas release A Challenge For Robin Hood was designed as a fun for all the family crowd pleaser and it's Hammer's very last big screen visit to Sherwood Forest as well as the last film to see men in tights until Mel Brooks thought they were a good idea.

Will it be a cause for celebration or are the lads going to miss running through the trees to the castle?

There's only one way to find out!

The upcoming episode on "A Challenge For Robin Hood" is the last Hammer feature about that forest based rapscallion and therefore the last time the good king would be mentioned too, so here's Cev with a potted history of the king that never met the bandit that never existed...

Professor Quatermass is back!

This guy just can't catch a break, there are more space wibbly's to deal with.

But before all that we have to deal with sneaky devils, acoustic occurrences and one of the hardest goodbyes, we have ever had to do.

As one Colonel said whilst sat in a jungle "The horror!", but could it really be that bad? Our band of intrepid explorers are about to find out as they investigate The Mummy's Shroud.

There's much talk of moving house, not for the sunnier climes of Egypt unfortunately, but there's yet another Colonel at the middle of this too, they're all over the place!

Something of a mad one this. Instead of bashing together another monster and being left with the worst looking Airfix kit in the shop, the Baron has decided to switch it up a bit and do some soul shuffling instead.

What Hammer ended up with is a film that was roundly dismissed by critics, but what will the lads in the house think of this premise that's wobblier than a Doctor Who set and made on an even similar budget?
