ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN OF THE HIMALAYAS (1957) - Blu-Ray

Stars Peter Cushing, Forrest Tucker and Maureen Connell. Peter Cushing and Forrest Tucker search the highlands for the infamous beastie. Cushing is doing it for science and Tucker is doing it for fame and fortune as he plans to catch and exploit the creature. Intense and sharply acted. Many British films of the time seem rather slow, but this never loses your attention. It almost seems like an English version of THE THING (1951); Isolation and a monster, lurking out there in the blinding snow. High production values with Val Guest directing for Hammer Studios. The best snowman movie made. Widescreen. Extras: commentaries, interview, Joe Dante feature, WORLD OF HAMMER documentary on Peter Cushing, trailer, still gallery.
