I think Amicus and Hammer both made some great films.
Amicus seems to be most remembered for its anthology films, although it made some fine films that were not anthologies. For example, And Now the Screaming Starts and I, Monster.
For pure volume, Hammer obviously wins. Much of their best work, however was based on classic gothic stories (or at least characters from those stories) whereas Amicus tended to be a bit more original with their productions.
Amicus films tend to have a slightly darker atmosphere to them than most Hammer films (although that could just be my perception).
