Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (15)

★★★ A bright and breezy blend of horror, comedy, swashbuckler and Italian western - a fun fear-frolic that became an instant Hammer cult. ~ Radio Times.

Starring Horst Janson and Hammer glamour icon Caroline Munro, the 1974 cult classic gets a brand-new 4K restoration from the original negative film elements.

Legendary creator Brian Clemens writes and directs this stylish, revisionist Hammer Horror – pitting a swashbuckling hero, his hunchbacked assistant and a feisty gypsy ingenue against a cunning and malevolent vampire.

A rash of mysterious deaths due to accelerated ageing compels Dr Marcus to summon his brother-in-arms, Captain Kronos – once a soldier but now a professional vampire hunter.

As the deaths continue, however, Kronos realises that this is no ordinary vampire he’s hunting.
