This week we take a trip overseas to look into Hammer Films and one of their "mini-hitchcocks," "Taste of Fear" (or "Scream of Fear" in the US). We discuss the founding of Hammer and where they were creatively after their gothic horrors were a hit. We talk about writer, Jimmy Sangster, and the production of this film. After discussing the background, we dive into the movie to explore the twists and turns of the plot. Finally, we each pair the film with another for a pair of double bills.
Thank you so much for listening!
