Documentary review - "The Flesh and the Fury: X-posing Twins of Evil" (2012) ***1/2

A very thorough look at the making of Twins of Evil - it's over feature length - but it doesn't feel padded because it explores the whole Karlstein trilogy, including the writing of Carmilla, the making of The Vampire Lovers and Lust for a Vampire before getting around to Twins (they don't spend much time on Lust, no one likes it).

Some fantastic talking heads, including leading Hammer enthusiasts/writers such as Wayne Kinsey as well as Joe Dante, plus interviews with John Hough (director) and Damien Thomas. The Collinson twins don't get interviewed, unfortunately.
