Shot back to back with A Study in Terror and The Reptile -- that information came from:

Rigby, Jonathan, English Gothic: A Century of Horror Cinema, Reynolds & Hearn 2000 ISBN 1903111013

here's the edit that introduced added it - there were originally two articles "Plague" and "The Plague". I expanded "Plague" and then merge it into "The Plague". Unfortunately, the book in question has gone back to the library so I can't now triple-check it. - Motor (talk) 16:58, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Aha, I just checked with English Gothic, and I can see what confused you. It does refer to four back-to-back productions in 1965, but it is referring to Dracula: Prince of Darkness, filmed back-to-back with Rasputin, the Mad Monk, and The Plague of the Zombies, filmed back-to-back with The Reptile. A Study in Terror was a non-Hammer film that just happened to be shot in the same year. I admit, though, Rigby does make it a bit ambiguous, and it could sound as if he is is saying A Study in Terror was part of the four Hammer productions. - Dave Rattigan 18:09 25 April 2006 GMT

I see... well, at least it's a good example of why you should always quote your source. - Motor (talk) 18:19, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
