The Creeping Flesh (March 1973)
Starring Cushing and Christopher Lee. A very strange but entertaining movie that does everything in its power to blur the line between horror and science fiction (and makes categorizing it as the latter a tough call for me). Shown is the French poster (The Devil's Flesh).
"...It's a pity the story did not hold too well...So much can happen after shooting until the release...." – Peter Cushing

Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (1973)
Starring Cushing and Shane Briant. Hammer's (and Cushing's) final Frankenstein film, and director Terence Fisher's final film. And every bit as good, in its way, as the first film in the series, 16 years earlier. Though Cushing never again played the role on film, his final brush with the character of Frankenstein would be about a year later for an LP recorded for Hammer's short-lived record division. Sadly, the recording was never released (see the near misses section).
"...You cannot make a film like this without integrity. To make the audiences believe in you, you must believe utterly in what you are doing....[though] our film could not be compared with Clockwork Orange and all its brutality, for instance....Our Frankenstein and Dracula films are simply fantasies....They are pure escapism." – Peter Cushing
