Hammer
also produced science fiction, thrillers and comedies —
and in later years, television series.
Hammer films were
cheap to produce but nonetheless appeared lavish, making
use of quality British actors and cleverly designed
sets.
During its most successful years, Hammer dominated
the horror film market, enjoying worldwide distribution
and considerable financial success.
This success was
due, in part, to distribution partnerships with major
United States studios, such as Warner Brothers.
