Ahhhh.... Home, wine, The Devil Rides Out on the telly, and I see I'm just in time to catch my favourite line: "He didn't stay long, did he?" #thefilmcrowd #hammerhorror

Richard Eaton must be like the Duc de Richelieu in having so many cars they're neither here nor there to him. That one Rex just crashed into a ditch is never seen or mentioned again for the rest of the film. #TheFilmCrowd

I would so have loved to be an extra in this Satanic orgy scene! It looks like massive fun. James Bernard's driving, urgent music absolutely makes it. #TheFilmCrowd

Gosh, the reds are very bright in this print! I've seen it on Talking Pictures TV before, but don't remember noticing that about it. I wonder if they're using a different print this time? #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub

I've always loved that sofa Mrs Eaton is sitting on, with its drop-down arms. I know it's in at least one other Hammer film, though I forget which now. Hound of the Baskervilles, perhaps? Or could be in Squire Hamilton's house in Plague of the Zombies? #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub

Haha, that was a very good line to cut to the adverts from: "Now, we wait." 🤣 #CellarClub #TheFilmCrowd

The Duc de Richelieu: The lights. They... seem to be dimmer.
Everyone else: No they're not!
Me: Bloody hell, they are gaslighting Christopher Lee!

The Angel of Death arrives! This film is often praised but with a regretful caveat about its special effects being dated. But I saw it in a cinema a few years ago, and the way the Angel looms above you from the screen there is very effective. #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub

I only learnt recently, I think from @HammerGothic, that the house where Mocata has his HQ and where these climactic scenes take place also serves as Pelham House in The Satanic Rites of Dracula. It's a house called High Canons in Hertfordshire. #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub

Because the films are set in different periods, of course, we can imagine they are the same house within their story-universes. After its use by Mocata in the 1930s, it could have passed to his disciples, who then turned to Dracula in the 1970s. #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub

Aw, I'm sad that's over! Very definitely one of Hammer's greats. #TheFilmCrowd #CellarClub
