Here Lies Amicus
@amicushere.bsky.social
A podcast where the complete history of Amicus Productions is dug up and dissected.
Watching “The Corpse” (1971) and there’s a scene where a mother and daughter drive past Betchworth Quarry in Surrey - a place I instantly recognised from the Amicus film “Scream And Scream Again” (1970)where a pivotal scene shot at the quarry that makes it instantly recognisable!
My review of the fab Tales of Adventure Collection 9 from @imprintfilms.bsky.social is now on Cinema Retro: www.cinemaretro.com/index.php/ar...
A flashback to The Fountain that will be celebrating its 20th Anniversary later this year. We discussed this masterpiece with film composer Mark Wind back in 2019 and it’s still available anywhere and directly from here: 👉 bit.ly/4rsPGke 👈 #TheFountain #DarrenAronofsky #ClintMansell
@househammerpod.bsky.social are back for the New Year with "The Witches", an early attempt at the folk-horror genre with Hollywood legend Joan Fontaine. Elsewhere, Smokey investigates the link between cats and witches and Cev discovers an English village that might be even lovelier than Doncaster...

Brilliantly barmy British anthology with Pleasence presiding as Joan Collins is molested by a tree and Novak eats her daughter. Priceless. 1973. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam #monsterfam #film
Oh, crikey. Can't listen to this because I hate the sound of my own voice :D But it was great fun to chat to @amicushere.bsky.social about this wonderful film (Amicus' THE MIND OF MR SOAMES w/Terence Stamp).

Beginning tonight with DEMONS OF THE MIND (1972) @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social are spoiling us with a bevvy of titles from the Hammer Vault! 👇
Happy birthday to the fantastic Peter Cushing! This is part 1 of a little thread on the films of his we've covered on General Witchfinders. Honestly thought we’d done more. What’s your favourite? #PeterCushing (Part 2 coming up…) 1 of 3
Looking for a starter pack for Bluesky folk who love Peter Cushing and point at the screen and shout ‘Michael Ripper’ should Michael Ripper appear. People who have seen Island of Terror 100s of times but still watch if if it’s on. Anyone?
Happy Peter Cushing day! 🖤 Born on this date in 1913, Peter Wilton Cushing OBE appeared in SO many Hammer films as well as The Hammer House of Horror, but which one’s your favourite performance? Here he is in a shot from our next installment THE GORGON (1964)
Happy Peter Cushing Day! To mark the occasion, I’m sidestepping the countless horrors from #amicusfilms, #hammerfilms and dozens of other British studios and going for SUSPECT (1960) that has a cast list full of surprises…. Forever grateful to @jackjewers.bsky.social for the bust too 🖤
Don’t get me wrong, I love talking about Hammer & Amicus films in equal measure, but it’s lovely to discuss something we caught on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social from 1950 as a result of the recent Kiss Of The Vampire episode...
