The Man Who Could Cheat Death   — 4K 10/25/25

Hammer special editions are the craze in 2025, and another fine disc label gets in on the action with a vintage title directed by Terence Fisher, with the sumptuous ‘original’ Hammer Technicolor look provided by cameraman Jack Asher. Anton Diffring murders to maintain an indefinite, if shaky, state of immortality; Hazel Court is the beauty who discovers his criminal secret. Chris Lee is good in a ‘straight’ role. For Hammer fans there’s another obvious attraction — a version of the show that reinstates the film’s sexier Continental version. All this and 4K too. On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from Vinegar Syndrome.
