I don't know, I envision more an "At the Earth's Core" approach. Stiff, paper-mache like dinosaurs, men in clumsy costumes and minuatures so big, the defy the term minuature. I love those movies. If someone did decide to finish a Hammer "lost project" I would love to see them strive to do it with practical and optical F/X. Forced perspective, puppets and that sort of thing.

As for my favorite Hammer Film I'll have to get back to you on that. It's too hard to choose.
