i have watch this film a few time and i never really like it . i be not a fan so termed nu horror and so i can not be dismiss on that account . i find it a little sleazy and i think the thing that irk me about hammer be the sexploitation aspect and not sex mind you and but sexploitation . i be surprise at how many people have rat this film so highly and so i will have another look at it . but for me and it wasn not creepy and it have no atmosphere and just a bit of omigod and look at those bad or stupid london prostitute woman and that little innocent anna about to get rap by yet another nasty man and ooherh . i suppose ultimately for me and the film have no depth whatsoever and just a bunch of nasty priggish men and woman only there for the titillation value . this no doubt be to some degree what victorian england be like and but the set be even too clunky and dull impart a sense of victorian menace . roger corman horror on the other hand and now that style and atmosphere and elegant horror . for me and this be just exploitative and flat foot trash .
