The Peter Cushing Centennial Blogathon!
This all started with that finest of blogs - Frankensteinia - The Frankenstein Blog - and you can use that link to check 'em out!
But we have business - a chronological journey through all of Mr. Cushing's cinematic efforts by way of the movie posters - and we're just getting going in the 1970's...

This grouping ends up being Mr. Cushing's busiest period - as we only covered the five years from 1972-1977. Tomorrow we will bring this incredible journey to an end - and may find room for an extra or two...
Until that post, you Can Poke Me With A Fork, Cause I Am Outta Here!
He worked with Christopher Lee and Donald Pleasance quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteHe did - and Vincent Price - they were all chums offscreen as well!
DeleteIt's interesting to seers the use of color change from monochromatic and back again. Star Wars? It must have been an independent film. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the cool aspects of these posts - watching the poster styles change through the years.
DeleteThanks a bunch for putting these up. I love that Horror Express poster art - my favorite Lee & Cushing non-Hammer movie(really glad they used that for the DVD cover).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words, Dick - yeah, that is a really good movie - and so Hammer-ish - it's well worth picking up in its latest release!
ReplyDeletefabulous collection! The posters for Shock Waves and Minotaur are my faves - though the latter is actually quite a stupid flick :)
ReplyDeleteI still haven't watched that one...yet!
