Hammer’s success with the horror genre saw it develop sequels to its existing titles and seek out further literary characters to adapt into new full colour features. [Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, The Phantom of the Opera].
The company also focussed on straight literary adaptations from novels by the likes of Denis Wheatley, H. Rider Haggard and J.B. Priestley. [The Devil Rides Out, The Witches, She, The Vengeance of She, The Old Dark House]
Despite their success here, Hammer continued to experiment with other genres. Some of the most critically praised being its string of psychological thrillers. The Nanny starring Academy Award winner Bette Davis, Scream of Fear starring Susan Strasberg, and Paranoiac starring Oliver Reed.
