Hammer's House Of Horrors #1: THE HOUSE THAT BLED TO DEATH & THE SILENT SCREAM!

In 1980 Hammer Films re-invented itself for TV. Gone were the castles and period clothes, Hammer brought its horror into the modern day with fantastic results.

Hammer House of Horror is a British horror anthology television series produced in Britain in 1980. Created by Hammer Films in association with Cinema Arts International and ITC Entertainment, it consists of 13 hour-long episodes, originally broadcast on ITV.

Each self-contained episode features a different kind of horror. These vary from witches, werewolves and ghosts to devil-worship and voodoo, but also include non-supernatural horror themes such as cannibalism, confinement and serial killers. In 2003 Channel 4 placed Hammer House of Horror at No. 50 in its "100 Scariest Moments" show. The clip shown was the children's party scene in "The House That Bled to Death"

The House that Bled to Death  

When the Peters move into 42 Coleman Road, they are unaware of the murder that took place there, until the house starts to reveal its gruesome past in horrific detail.

The Silent Scream 

 An elderly pet shop owner who was a former Nazi concentration camp guard is intent on continuing experiments on human victims. His plan is to create prisons with no bars, for which he captures a former prison inmate and his wife. Cast: Peter Cushing, Brian Cox, Elaine Donnelly

Created by Roy Skeggs after years of false starts for Hammer on the television front, Hammer House of Horror was devised as a way to tell contemporary stories with a classic Hammer feel. Though the period costumes and elaborate castle sets were gone, the blood, sex, and humor Hammer fans had grown to love would still very much be present, and while Dracula wouldn’t be stalking the series, House of Horror would provide a home to a number of other monsters ranging from witches and werewolves to serial killers and sinister cults.

While it is perhaps not as well-remembered as the monster films from the studio’s glory days, 40 years after its debut Hammer House of Horror still stands as a testament to Hammer’s versatility, scrappy determination, and willingness to go all-out for a good horror yarn. - Decider
