In this episode, “The Invisible Dan” and “Monster Mike” are heading back to 18th Century Spain for Hammer’s one and only wolf man movie! Join them as they discuss the iconic Oliver Reed in his first lead role, producer Tony Hinds adapting the screenplay himself from “the Dracula of werewolf novels,” Hammer’s trademark cost-saving measures moving the story from Paris to Madrid, and why the focus on story–rather than star power–makes The Curse of the Werewolf a distinct entry into Hammer’s gothic horror canon.
