I've extracted Hammer House of Horror from 3 Blurays to my HDD. They're ~9gig each. I can squish them down to about 1gig per episode with no visible quality loss (retaining commentary tracks and subs)
Has someone already made reasonable sized rips of these disks?
I'm happy to do it, but I don't want to duplicate work already done.
There are some moments of NSFW titillating titties in the show, but, that's certainly not the focus.
I've always been a huge fan of British horror so this series was a huge fave of mine. I always wished it lasted longer than it did, it really had some truly terrifying & unsettling episodes with great tension, acting & scares. Peter Cushing, Brian Cox, Denholm Elliott & Pierce Brosnan appeared on this show among others.
And just rewatching a marathon of the series on the DECADES channel over the weekend, I wondered if they could reboot this today, I could easily see a studio like A24 doing horror shorts with the same dread, anxiety and bleakness as the original show. A24's well known for having films filled with dread, bleakness and an uneasy & eerie atmosphere like The VVitch, Hereditary, Midsommar & The Lighthouse. I could see Ari Aster, Robert Eggers or even Mike Flanagan writing & directing the episodes.
What do you think? Would you like to see it rebooted? Could you see A24 or another studio doing a reboot of the original? Or do you think the series is fine the way it is? And what did you think of the original series? Which, if any episodes scared or creeped you out? And what were your favorite episodes?
For me, my favorite episodes were Two Faces of Evil, Guardian of the Abyss, The Silent Scream, The Children of the Full Moon, Charlie Boy & A Visitor From The Grave. How about you? Did you see any of those episodes? If so, what did you think of them?
Came home to find the first episode proudly showing up on the streaming service. I know it's available elsewhere. They will be adding one a week. Now I can hope they can do the same for Thriller.

I love investigative reporters, they always make the best test subjects.
