"The Abominable Snowman" is a British horror film released in 1957. It was directed by Val Guest and produced by Hammer Film Productions. The movie is based on a teleplay by Nigel Kneale, who also wrote the screenplay for the film.

The story revolves around a scientific expedition in the Himalayas, led by Dr. John Rollason (played by Peter Cushing). The team sets out to search for evidence of the legendary Yeti, also known as the Abominable Snowman. As the expedition progresses, the members face various challenges, including the harsh mountain environment and the dangers associated with their quest.

The film explores themes of fear, belief, and the impact of human intrusion into the mysterious and unknown. It is notable for its atmospheric tension and the emphasis on psychological horror rather than relying solely on traditional monster scares.
