description

Preorder scheduled for release on February 22, 2027

With strong support from Hazel Court and Christopher Lee, The Man Who Could Cheat Death has been painstakingly restored by Hammer from the original film negatives and includes optional, originally censored scenes thought lost for years.

A doctor and dilettante, Georges Bonner's sculptures are the talk of Belle Époque Parisian society. But Bonner hides a grisly secret: he is over a century old and a serial murderer, kept artificially young by harvesting glands from his unfortunate victims.
