Details

• Release Year: 1962
• Genre: Comedy, Horror, Mystery, Suspense/Thriller
• Plot: This triple treat of terror is a three-episode 'blood-dripping package that includes murder, necropilia, dementia, live burials, open tombs, exhumation, resurection, zombies and feline vengeance,' resulting in nothing less than 'juicy entertainment' and 'spine-chilling cinema' (Cue). Mix in three of horrordom's greatest villains, Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, and Basil Rathbone, and you've got a shocker you dare not watch alone! Price stars in all three episodes, including Morella, in which a man is haunted after blaming his young daughter for the death ofhis wife. In The Black Cat, a pair of illicit lovers are buried alive by a jealous husband, and in The Case of M. Valdemar, a sorcerer's spell backfires when he sentences an innocent man to living hell.
