Dead of Night (1945)

A Good Classic Horror Anthology


This film was recommended to me and I am glad I was able to find a copy to watch. This is a good film - hard to find on VHS, DVD or Blue-ray and rarely airs on TV (if at all).

There are five stories within one. The story base is of a man that has  reoccurring dreams the ending will tie this base story in with the other five stories - a neat way to end the film.

"The Hearse Driver" and "The Christmas Party" are two good fairly creepy stories that will wet your appetite for the next two segments. "The Haunted Mirror" and "The Ventriloquist's Dummy" are the best two stories of the five - these two are really good and scary. The last segment "Golfing Story" is cute... it will lighten up the mood of the viewer, bring you back to a more cheerful state before the end of the film which ties everything together.

A good film - if you can find a copy to watch I would recommend you watching.

8/10
