Description
Hammer icon Peter Cushing and Hollywood hard-man Forrest Tucker give powerful performances as a well-meaning scientist and an arrogant entrepreneur, both intent on trapping the fabled Yeti, in Hammer’s The Abominable Snowman. Re-teaming Quatermass creator Nigel Kneale and BAFTA-winning director Val Guest, this thrilling fantasy horror has been painstakingly restored by Hammer in 4K from the original film negatives.
Dr Rollason and his team, on a scientific expedition in the Himalayas, are guests at an isolated monastery. Then a second expedition turns up – intent on trapping the legendary Yeti in a money-making venture.
