Carry On Screaming (1966)
This original British UK Quad for the 1966 comedy-horror Carry on Screaming is widely regarded as the finest Hammer Horror-style poster that Hammer never actually produced. Featuring quintessential artwork by the legendary Tom Chantrell, this poster captures the perfect intersection of British farce and Gothic atmosphere. Chantrell, who also designed the accompanying One-Sheet and several of the most iconic Hammer posters of the era, utilised the wide landscape format of the Quad to brilliantly showcase the film’s star-studded ensemble.
The cultural significance of this piece lies in its masterful parody of the very genre it draws inspiration from, serving as a high-water mark for the Carry On franchise's visual branding. Chantrell’s vivid illustrations bring to life the comedy greats Kenneth Williams, Fenella Fielding, and Harry H. Corbett amidst a backdrop of classic horror tropes, including a gothic manor and eerie green mists.
