Trivia Originally proposed by brief Hammer cohort Kenneth Hyman, this movie was planned to be the first in a series of many Sherlock Holmes movies starring Peter Cushing, produced by Hammer Films. When the audiences disapproved of a Hammer movie without any monsters and failed to turn up in great numbers, the planned series was subsequently dropped. See more »
