Peter Cushing Hammer Horror movies are wild because it's always called something like The Hideous House of Blood Will Kill You and Peter Cushing plays a doctor in a sickeningly well-tailored three-piece suit and an even nicer coat, and he says things like "this creature is an entity of great evil" (pronounced ee-vil), and then Christopher Lee shows up in makeup and homoerotically chokes Cushing for a bit, and then the Female Character arrives and tenderly cradles Cushing's face in her hands in the aftermath like he's a precious wounded middle-aged baby bird even though nine times out of ten he's not even her love interest and her love interest instead is just Some Guy™ with the personality of stale supermarket brand bread. And then Cushing kills the monster in a creative kind of way, and later you read about the movie and it turns out that in the scene when Cushing's character is forced to drink blood, they used actual human blood. And it's no longer than ninety minutes long.

Island of Terror (1967) 🥼

Director: Terence Fisher (Planet Film Productions) Genres: Scifi Horror, Creature feature (Science) 🔬 Notes: Laboratory, lab experiment, Cool creature fx, radiation, well paced, medical science, Peter Cushing, "No Bones?"

Review: This is a great Scifi Horror film! If you like Dr. Who and practical creature fx with lots of campy action, good atmosphere and great paced story then this is for you! I loved watching the weird little creatures slide around and whip their tentacles at our heroes. My favorite part being near the beginning when scientists went around saying "No Bones?" over and over and over, made me laugh. I had more fun than I thought going into this which was a nice surprise as I normally don't go for many old Scifi films. Overall I give Island of Terror(1967): Worth the Watch! 🧪

-Warnings for Folks- Gore: Hand get chopped off, liquified people fx

Watching Island of Terror rn and Peter Cushing's character just propositioned the movie's Heterosexual Couple for a threesome (he got turned down) and my main criticism is that his character could do better than the two of them tbh

Island of Terror has a famously underwhelming creature which I actually don’t mind and a nice “base under siege” Doctor Who vibe as Cushing and a whole bunch of people who are not Cushing deal with a bone sucking cancer cure gone wrong. A good atmosphere more than a complete package.
