A Fun Classic Horror
This is a fun classic horror film... 4 creepy stories about the occupants of the house. Worth watching for fans of classic horror.
Segment 1 "Method for Murder" - A writer rents the house as inspiration for his new horror book. He invents his main murderous character but things become all to real.
Segment 2 "Waxworks" - A man named Philip Grayson (Peter Cushing) rents the house. An old friend comes to visit and the two men become obsessed with a beautiful wax figure that reminds them all to much of the woman they were fighting over years before.
Segment 3 "Sweets to the Sweet" - John Reid (Christopher Lee) and his daughter rent the home. Reid seems overly protective of his daughter who is secretly involved in witchcraft.
Segment 4 "The Clock" - A film actor rents the house and obtains a cloak that gives him the powers of a vampire.
The first 3 segments are good - creepy. The last segment (The Cloak) was on the humorous side to me. All 4 segments are good - I enjoyed the movie.
Strange, I really thought I have seen this film before - but after watching it I think I was mixing up the title of this film with another movie.... :D
8/10
