Responsible for more than 150 productions in 40 years, Hammer proved themselves to be the most successful British film company ever. In 1968, after reporting export earnings in excess of £2.7 million, Hammer received the Queen's Award to Industry - the first time the award had gone to a film production company, yet just a decade later, they were struggling to get a single film into production.

Here is a run-down of the films of Hammer, from their humble beginnings under the wing of William Hinds/Hammer to their peak in the 1960s and beyond. The films are listed chronologically under the production company credited on the film itself, although technically, Hammer Film Productions Ltd was responsible for all the films from River Patrol onwards.
