Quad vintage
UK Quad movie poster for a 1971 "Double Hammer Horror" bill, featuring two classic films from Hammer Film Productions: Twins of Evil and Hands of the Ripper. This double feature program was released in the United Kingdom on October 17, 1971.
The Films
Twins of Evil (1971): Directed by John Hough, this is the final film in Hammer's "Karnstein Trilogy". It stars Peter Cushing as a puritanical witch-hunter whose nieces (real-life twins Madeleine and Mary Collinson) become entangled with a local vampire count.
Hands of the Ripper (1971): Directed by Peter Sasdy, this film follows the daughter of Jack the Ripper (played by Angharad Rees), who is possessed by the murderous spirit of her father. She is taken in by a psychiatrist (Eric Porter) who tries to cure her through Freudian techniques.
Poster Details
Artist: The artwork was created by Mike Vaughan, who provided consistent designs for both films on this shared poster.
Format: This is a British Quad poster, measuring approximately 30 x 40 inches.
Classification: The poster advertises an "X Program," which was the British Board of Film Censors (BBFC) rating at the time, indicating the films were for adults only (18+) due to their horror content. |
