Good ol'-fashioned horror,
By
This review is from: Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors [1965] [DVD] (DVD)
The cast of this film alone is utterly incredible. No film before or since has brought together Donald Sutherland, Peter Cushing, Alan Freeman (not 'arf, pop pickers!), Christopher Lee, Kenny Lynch and Roy Castle - it really is a record-breaker!
This was the first of many films from the Amicus studio (the only serious British rival to Hammer for a while) in which several shorter horror stories are held together by a connecting thread. The titles were often poor - here, for example, there is no actual House of Horrors, it's just what he calls his Tarot cards. Never mind the titles, though: what a fun film! As always with such films, some of the individual stories are pretty ropy - Alan Freeman's sinister shrub being a case in point...though the Donald Sutherland vampire story and Christopher Lee as a snide art critic being menaced by a suicide's severed hand are worth a viewing on their own. As for Peter Cushing as Dr Terror himself, has there ever been a better, more dignified horror actor?

Good creepy fun,
This review is from: Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors [1965] [DVD] (DVD)
This is old school English horror, with maximum emphasis on performances and atmosphere. The film is divided into several creepy tales regarding death and doom, and with a cast lead by Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee this is a quality flick. Recommended.

AmicusHorrorAnthologyFan,
This review is from: Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors [1965] [DVD] (DVD)
This great film is not available in the U.S. in region 1 format. MarxWax shot this little gem across the ocean in no time at all. God Save The Queen!
