What is the most beautiful traumatizing horror movie?

 

Hammer House of Horror

Hammer house of horror was the first horror movie I was exposed to during my childhood days in the 90s. It used to air on our national TV broadcaster  ZNBC every friday 21:30 hours to 22:30 hours.

With my eyes fixed on a black and white 14"  President TV set, I would wait for the film to start in the company of my elder cousins.

Just that sound of  hammer house of horror would make my hair move.

Going to bed after watching the film used to be a difficult task for.

 I have watched horrors like the exorcism of Emily Rose and others but never been scared. Hammer house of horror was something else.

About the film

Hammer House of Horror is a British television series made in 1980. An anthology series created by Hammer Films in association with Cinema Arts International and ITC Entertainment, it consists of 13 hour-long episodes, originally broadcast on ITV.

Each self-contained episode features a different kind of horror. These vary from witches, werewolves and ghosts to devil-worship and voodoo, but also include non-supernatural horror themes such as cannibalism, confinement and serial killers.

 In 2003 Channel 4 placed Hammer House of Horror at No. 50 in its "100 Scariest Moments" show. The clip shown was the children's party scene in "The House That Bled to Death".

Episodes were directed by Alan Gibson, Peter Sasdy and Tom Clegg, among others, and the story editor was Anthony Read. Hammer regular Peter Cushing appears in his final Hammer production in episode 7, titled "The Silent Scream".
