Description

Explores the production issues and cultural contexts of Hammer's unmade films Presents a previously undocumented history of one of the most famous British production companies of all time The first academic monograph to utilise the Hammer Script Archive, which includes over 100 files on Hammer's unmade film and television projects A significant addition to the burgeoning field of unmade film studies and the study of Hammer Films This book utilises never seen before materials held in the Hammer Script Archive to present a new perspective on one of the most famous British production studios of all time. While many studies of Hammer Films have been written, none have accounted for the significant amount of creative and economic labour that went into over 100 unmade projects at the company. Using primary materials such as screenplays and correspondence, the book examines the production contexts of an eclectic range of Hammer's unmade films, ranging from the Loch Ness Monster project Nessie to Dracula in India script Kali Devil Bride of Dracula. Using Hammer as a case study, the book represents a significant academic intervention by being the first sustained industry study to primarily use unmade projects. The book offers a fresh perspective on a legendary film studio, and argues for the importance and sustained study of unmade films within film history.
