Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter
"The girls you spoke of – they were not drained of blood, but of youth. Of life itself.” Legendary creator Brian Clemens (who scored worldwide hits with The Avengers and The Professionals) 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. Starring Horst Janson as Kronos and Hammer Glamour icon Caroline Munro as Carla, cult classic Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter makes its worldwide debut as a brand-new 4K restoration from the original negative film elements. Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter shifted the paradigm on cinematic horror, creating a film for which appreciation has only grown over the decades – its post-modern script, stylish direction, memorable performances and folk horror mise en scène make it both of and ahead of its time. Its influence is hard to over-estimate. 50 years after its initial theatrical exhibition, this new restoration of Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter celebrates an absolute classic of British horror whose time has very definitely come. ---- Year of Celebration Film - Donate £50 at checkout 2024 marks 85 years since our cinema (originally the Cosmo) was built, 50 years since GFT was founded and the 20th edition of Glasgow Film Festival.
