The Abominable Snowman

Film Skool

| In 1957, Peter Cushing went to the Himalayas to find the Yeti and came back with one of Hammer's most underrated films.

Today, The Abominable Snowman arrives in a stunning new 4K restoration, drawn from elements never used in any previous restoration.

This is the definitive version of a film that has deserved one for decades. Peter Cushing at his most quietly compelling, a Yeti you almost never see, and a script by the legendary writer of Quatermass, Nigel Kneale, that asks harder questions than most horror films dare to.

Two versions of the film. Three commentaries. Six new documentaries. A 120-page book.
