Retrospective Hammer
This legendary company, founded in 1934 by jeweler and amateur vaudeville actor William Hinds ( better known by his stage name Will Hammer ), breaks through in the fifties when they start to churn out one horror film after another. Terence Fisher, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Val Guest and many other mythical names will contribute to a world-renowned catalogue of almost 200 movies ! To celebrate their 80th anniversary, the BIFFF will present the latest Hammer film, The Quiet Ones, accompanied by a retrospective of 7 movies in the Cinematek that have influenced the history of genre cinema.
