    A classic British Hammer Horror with interweaving stories full of suspense, intrigue and, well, horror. With a cast to die for including the much loved and sorely misses Roy Castle (Added to the cast last minute when the original actor suffered a heart attack). Brilliant!

    it wasn't bad at all for an oldie... far from it being genuinely scary it did keep things interesting with 5 differents little stories all in themselves. can't remember what my favourite one was now. i was feeling sleepy when watching this. i can remember it alright though. i hea...( read more)rd something about a load of these hammer horrors getting re-made over the next few years? is this true? anyone know anything... post me a comment

    Here it is: the beginning of Amicus' domination of the horror anthology format. Sure, not all the stories are good (the creeping vine story goes nowhere) but it's a well-made, eerie horror flick with a wonderful, star performance from Cushing as Dr. Terror (Dr. Shreck, actually)...( read more) himself. The first story (the werewolf segment) is the best, in my opinion, although Christopher Lee being menanced by Michael Gough's severed hand is pretty spectacular as well. It's all about atmosphere, lighting and good stereotyping of the lead characters. If you like British horror films from the sixties, you're going to love this one. Check it out.

    The first anthology from Hammer Horror rivals Amicus, and probably their best. All the segments are entertaining, with even the weakest story having it's moments.
    The set up is a train journey involving five men and the mysterious Dr Schreck played by Peter Cushing. It turns o...( read more)ut Cushing can tell the paasenger's future just by having each man tap three times on his deck of tarot cards. So then precedes each man's fate each involving a nasty but highly enjoyable to us surprise! First up we have a Werewolf terrorising the first victim. Next we have a family with a murderous creeping plant with a mind of it's own. Then, the weakest segment I feel, involving Roy Castle as a jazz musician who doesn't realise the dangers of voodoo. This is the segment where some humour is injected in but doesn't always work. Then one of the best, with Christopher Lee putting in a brilliant performance as a snobbish art critic. Then finally a very young Donald Sutherland, who unbeknown to him is married to a vampire.
    If your interested in this sort of 60s/70s horror you will no doubt enjoy this.
