Blimey, did they remake Death Race 2000? How dare they !! I'd like to watch the Hammer movies myself (and Amicus) but they have yet to release them in budget versions, why oh why do we have to pay through the nose for UK horror, SF & fantasy?
Have actually been watching a lot of Universal Horror movies in the last few months, partly for their own sake but also because I was raiding the soundtracks for sound effects for my Batman animated film, "Terror of the Monk", based on the 1939 comic book story.
I discovered the damndest thing while working on "The Wolfman", I happened to play one of the wolf howls backwards and heard a faint "lets get out of here" subliminal message. On the regular soundtrack it's just a soft murmer, it's the first howl you hear before Bela Lugosi attacks a victim, then Lon Chaney Jr does him in.
I haven't heard of this sort of thing being done till the 50's nor came across in it any reference work, it's just plain weird.
