Although Lee headlines this film he disappears halfway through which is a shame as his is the most interesting character here. Glover is a boring lead and the whole mystery isn't really that interesting. Setting a horror film around a theatre that specialises in horror is a good hook but it never really adds up to much in the end. Lee was getting better stuff with Hammer at this point.
