The lead role of Bonnet was originally offered to Peter Cushing, who turned it down because he was completely exhausted following the shooting of "The Hound of the Baskervilles." Hammer had no recourse since Cushing wasn't under contract at the time.

Happy Hammer Wednesday, Fright Clubbers! Doing a bit of work on my The Fog-themed Fwrite Club zine right now, but still wanted to draw a new portrait of Christopher Lee for tonight's presentation of The Man Who Could Cheat Death!

Thank you. Stressful week but I am trying to just let some things go and know that things will be fine.

He looks distinguished as fuck. #FrightClub

I am starting to think Christopher Lee should have had a mustache in more roles. #FrightClub #HammerWednesday

I wish I was around last night. This week has had a rough start. #FrightClub

I remember watching this show as a child. Looking back, it was a trip.

You see, when I hear Giles, I think of a middle-aged man at the youngest. #SundayScares

Giles looks too young to be a Giles. #SundayScares #TheDarkSideOfTheMoon

I am just going to say, maybe the soundproof doors weren't the best idea for the ship. #SundayScares

Well, they did all they could for Alex... sitting there doing nothing was the only option Giles had. #SundayScares #TheDarkSideOfTheMoon

They're ripping off everything else in the sci-fi genre, so... why not? Lol #SundayScares

What a tragedy. They found a dead Temu Paul F Tompkins. #SundayScares #TheDarkSideOfTheMoon

A first-time watch for me. #SundayScares #MutantFam #Horrosky

You need to watch The Outlaws (from England). It’s on Amazon.

He’s great and a conman doing community service.

Thanks for the recommendation.

His scene with Hopper is a joy to watch.

Yeah, you never get to see Val Kilmer's face, but he plays Elvis, or as he is credited in the film -- the "Mentor." #FrightClub
