Le métier des techniciens de la Hammer, le talent de Fisher, l'énergie de Cushing et un Chris Lee en pleine forme...

MCT:April 16, 2008Quite possibly the best Sherlock Holmes movie ever made. Two master actors in Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, good writing and a well-adapted screenplay from the best Holmes mystery novel. Top-notch cinema.

I saw this as a child on a late late show and it scared the stuffin' outta me. I recently watched it again and? Well it's just a sentimental favorite now. Not quite so scary but still fun to watch - especially the special features. Listening to Christopher Lee talk about making the film and hearing him read from Sherlock Holmes and from The Hound of the Baskervilles was a treat in and of itself.

Hammer's version of one the the most oft-filmed stories in cinema is also one of the best. It features artful direction from Terence Fisher (who was also responsible for Hammer's Frankenstein, Dracula and The Mummy) with a great use of colour and light and shadow and a nice sense of period. The familiar and likeable pairing of Cushing and Lee head a solid cast of British character actors, and Marla Landi is striking as the local fiery temptress. It's just a shame that the stunt-hound was so bad!

MCT:July 9, 2007It's amazing how much this tale and this movie specifically inspired Brotherhood of the Wolf. Seeing Pete Cushing and Chris Lee onscreen in this one, with lots of dialogue each, is a treat. It's a very cool piece of work and one of my personal favorites that I've been meaning to show to others. :>

Watch this superb Peter Cushing Holmes and be reminded what an excellent screen presence he was. An early Hammer production, with superb sets, wonderful colour and a big fucking scary dog! Director Terence Fisher is the reason I was an under acheiver in school, as I stayed up most week nights to watch all the Hammer films that aired in the early hours.

Classic! The story STILL works today and you STILL want to see it! Cushing is just brilliant in this as the bumbling Holmes!

The best Hammer film produced and one of the finest adaptations of the story, and considering some of the liberties taken with the plot that is a complement. It's not only a good addition to the British horror canon but also a great addition to the plethora of Holmes films out there definitely one of the Top 10 Sherlock Holmes films, and Peter Cushing is a superb Sherlock.

Can't understand why it got so many bad reviews. Remember people, it was 1959!
Cushing is the true image of Holmes, if you've seen at least one of the original illustrations. Morell also does a very fine Watson, considering I thought Nigel Bruce's interpretation made the character lean on the naive side. -
MCT:June 12, 2006Bad movie!!! What's the point of using a dog to act as a monster??? And who would actually go out in the dark when there's an escaped convict running free and a ''monster" hungry for blood?? Anyway I didn't like it.
