In this episode, after feeling the vibes of 70s British Sci-Fi Horror from our prior film, Dustin tries to keep the ball rolling with a blind pick. Who could imagine what terrors await!? So join us as we wind the clock back a few more years to 1970 and head into the land of Amicus Productions to check out Scream and Scream Again. This is certainly one of the films in their catalog and we dig deep to find some merit in this hot mess of a film.

It's time for one of those huge episodes. Well, it's a three parter anyways. 1965 was a low rent year for horror movies on the whole but some younger hot shot directors were beginning to changed things. A modern flavour was evident in a few of the picks. But, what do I think was the very greatest horror movie that came out during 1965? Well, here we have the top 10. The worst 10. A slew of also rans. Some awesome mates. Some special guests. Several shots of whisky and a 4+ hour running time split over 3 episodes.

As a companion piece to our episode on --And Now The Screaming Starts!, here's an episode of the much-missed podcast A Very British Horror discussing 1972's Asylum, the previous movie made Amicus Productions and director Roy Ward Baker.  The show's regular hosts, Chris Denton and Paul Monk, are joined by our very own Dan, in hyper-enthusiastic mode. If you've never seen Asylum, it's great fun and someone has (probably dodgily) uploaded it to YouTube.  We recommend you watch the film before listening to this spoilery discussion. Many thanks to Chris and Paul for allowing us to host this.

Welcome back to The Video Store Podcast, where every week I recommend four films for you to rent from the video store this week. Today, we're diving into the world of classic horror anthologies. These are films that tell several stories within one, often with a framing device that ties everything together. If you're a fan of short, chilling tales, this episode is for you. First up is Dead of Night from 1945. This British film is one of the earliest horror anthologies and remains highly influential. It features five stories, all connected by a group of strangers who meet at a country house and realize they've all been having strange dreams. It's one of the first films to introduce the now-classic “ventriloquist dummy” horror trope, with a segment that stands out as one of the creepiest of the film. Directors like Alfred Hitchcock and Federico Fellini have praised Dead of Night for its surreal and unsettling atmosphere.Next, we have Black Sabbath, a 1963 Italian horror anthology directed by Mario Bava. It's made up of three stories, and depending on which version you watch, the order of those stories might change. Boris Karloff, famous for his role as Frankenstein's monster, appears in the third story and also introduces each segment. Bava's use of color in this film is incredible, especially in “The Wurdalak,” a tale about vampires, which Karloff stars in. Bava's visual style and ability to create mood really shine here, and the film is often credited with helping to shape Italian horror.The third recommendation is Kwaidan from 1964, a Japanese anthology directed by Masaki Kobayashi. The film adapts four traditional Japanese ghost stories, each with a unique, haunting style. It's a slow-burn film, with gorgeous set design and a painterly use of color, especially in the story “The Woman of the Snow.” Kobayashi originally intended for the film to be much longer, but the studio asked him to cut it down, so there's even more footage that exists beyond the version most people know. Kwaidan was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, which isn't typical for horror movies, especially one with such a dreamlike, experimental approach.Finally, there's The House That Dripped Blood from 1971. This British anthology was produced by Amicus Productions, a studio known for its anthology films, and it's one of their best. The movie features four stories tied together by a detective investigating mysterious deaths at a house. Each tale explores different horror subgenres, from vampires to haunted waxworks. It stars some familiar faces like Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, who were regulars in British horror films of the era. The script was written by Robert Bloch, who's probably best known for writing Psycho, so you know the storytelling is solid.These four films are perfect examples of how diverse the anthology format can be, especially within the horror genre. They span different decades, countries, and styles, but all manage to deliver a range of creepy, atmospheric stories in one package. If you haven't explored horror anthologies before, these films are a great starting point.Thanks for listening to The Video Store Podcast. Be sure to check out these films, and I'll be back next week with more recommendations. This is a public episode.

It's another British horror anthology film from Amicus Productions and our "beyond" movie for October - From Beyond the Grave!

"The House That Dripped Blood" is a 1971 British anthology horror film directed by Peter Duffell and distributed by Amicus Productions. The film is a collection of four short stories, each concerning a series of inhabitants of the eponymous building.   Denholm Elliott appears in the segment "Method for Murder," playing Charles Hillyer. He is joined by Joanna Dunham, who portrays Alice Hillyer, Charles' wife.   Peter Cushing stars in the segment "Waxworks," portraying Philip Grayson. Joss Ackland (known for "Lethal Weapon 2," "Watership Down," and "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey," among over 100 other films) plays Neville Rogers, Grayson's friend. Wolfe Morris appears as the Waxworks Proprietor.   Christopher Lee appears in the segment "Sweets to the Sweet," playing John Reid. He is joined by Nyree Dawn Porter (star of "The Forsyte Saga," who turned down the lead female role in "The Avengers") as Ann Norton, the tutor hired to care for Reid's daughter.   Jon Pertwee features in the segment "The Cloak," portraying Paul Henderson. Ingrid Pitt plays Carla Lind, Henderson's co-star and love interest in the vampire film they're working on.   All of the stories were written by Robert Bloch, best known as the writer of "Psycho." Bloch wrote hundreds of short stories and over 30 novels and was a protégé of H. P. Lovecraft.      Amicus films are sometimes mistaken for the output of Hammer Films due to their similar visual style and use of some of the same actors. However, unlike the period gothic Hammer films, Amicus productions were usually set in the present day.    In the Second World War, Denholm Elliott (famous to this podcast for his titular role as the Signalman in the BBC "Ghost Story for Christmas," podcast episode 21) joined the Royal Air Force, training as a wireless operator/air gunner in 1942. His aircraft was hit by flak and subsequently ditched in the North Sea. Elliott and four of his crewmen survived, and he spent the rest of the war in Stalag Luft VIIIb, a prisoner-of-war camp.         Later, Pertwee was attached to the top-secret Naval Intelligence Division, working alongside future James Bond author (and of course Big Chris Lee's cousin) Ian Fleming and reporting directly to Prime Minister Winston Churchill. In 1967, he was chosen by "Dad's Army" producer David Croft for the role of Captain Mainwaring, but Pertwee turned it down. In 1969, Pertwee asked his agent to apply for the role of Doctor Who and was surprised to find he was already on the shortlist. He was the second choice for the role; Ron Moody was the first but was unavailable.    Jon Pertwee later claimed that "The House That Dripped Blood" was meant to be a comedy-horror film and was initially filmed in that way. However, during the production, "the producer came in, took one look at what we are doing, and went raving mad," insisting it be a horror film and not a comedy. This change meant a shift in tone, but the material already filmed remained, resulting in the film dipping in quality and edits to remove comedy elements from Pertwee's sequences. He also admitted that he intentionally based his character on his co-star and friend Christopher Lee. In a scene where Jon's character talks about favourite roles, he says that he prefers Bela Lugosi's Dracula rather than "the chap who plays him nowadays."

A campy werewolf murder mystery cut from the cloth of Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None," 1972's The Beast Must Die mashes up blaxploitation and horror courtesy of Amicus Productions. Richard selected this movie for our Spit Roast arc and defends its virtues while acknowledging its awkward pacing, unnecessary scenes, and infamous "werewolf break." The casting of classic British actors like Peter Cushing and Michael Gambon strengthen the film, as does the standout performance of Calvin Lockhart in the leading role, but they can only do so much in a mess of a movie.

The Uncanny is a 1977 British-Canadian anthology horror film directed by Denis Héroux, written by Michel Parry, and starring Peter Cushing, Donald Pleasence, Ray Milland, Joan Greenwood, Donald Pilon, Samantha Eggar, and John Vernon.   Although it is similar to the horror anthologies released by Amicus Productions and could be mistaken as one, it was actually distributed by The Rank Organisation. However, the co-producer was Milton Subotsky of Amicus.   Cat's Eye (also known as Stephen King's Cat's Eye) is a 1985 American anthology horror thriller film directed by Lewis Teague and written by Stephen King. It comprises three stories, "Quitters, Inc.", "The Ledge", and "General". The first two are adaptations of short stories in King's 1978 Night Shift collection, and the third is unique to the film. The three stories are connected only by the presence of a traveling cat, which plays an incidental role in the first two and is a major character of the third.   Its cast includes Drew Barrymore, James Woods, Alan King, Robert Hays and Candy Clark.   Opening Credits; Introduction (1.00); Background History (41.36); The Uncanny (1977) Trailer (42.08); Feature Presentation (44.37); Let's Rate (1:21.14); Introducing the Second Feature (1:35.49); Cat's Eye (1989) Trailer (1:37.12); Lights, Camera, Action (1:38.34); How Many Stars (2:08.26); End Credits (2:26.00); Closing Credits (2:27.28)   Opening Credits– Epidemic Sound – Copyright .

We present two wildly different takes on the film as Jason champions the movie for embodying the spirit of classic Halloween horror gems of the 70s and 80s.

Tales From the Crypt is a 1972 British anthology horror film directed by Freddie Francis. The film, consisting of five segments adapted from EC comics, was produced by Amicus Productions, which made several horror anthology films throughout the 1970's.  The film stars Joan Collins, Peter Cushing, and Ralph Richardson. The plot focuses on a group of 5 strangers who encounter the mysterious Crypt Keeper in the catacombs.  He reveals to each of them the possible manner in which they might die, in the hopes that they might stray from their evil ways.

Lee returns to finish off his look at the music from the films of Amicus Productions. The material covered here comes from their peak and rapid decline. While the films may have started to lower in quality by the mid-1970s, it can be argued that the scores and soundtracks were still top notch. Listen in, and Lee believes you'll agree with him. --Toccata & Fugue in D Minor from "Tales from the Crypt" (1972) --Johann Sebastian Bach; adapted by Douglas Gamley --Night on Bald Mountain and excerpt from Pictures at an Exhibition II: Gnomus from "Asylum" (1972) --Modest Mussorgsky; adapted by Douglas Gamley --Main Title and Suite from "The Vault of Horror" (1973) --Douglas Gamley --Suite from "And Now the Screaming Starts!"

Lee continues his extended look into the scores and soundtracks of Amicus Productions. This episode covers the middle years, as horror becomes the primary focus, along with a few strange asides. Check out the YouTube channel "Fish Man" that is the source of many of the suites featured in this and other episodes that I do.  --Suite from "Torture Garden" (1967) --James Bernard --Suite from "They Came from Beyond Space (1967) --James Stevens --Suite from "The Terrornauts" (1967) --Elisabeth Lutyens --Danger Route from "Danger Route" (1967) --Lionel Bart --Scream and Scream Again from "Scream and Scream Again" (1970) --Amen Corner --Suite & Supernatural Slugfest from "Scream and Scream Again" (1970) --David Whitaker --Suite {Main Title/Prologue/Writing Horror/Seeing and Hearing Things/Philip Grayson/Remembering/The Vampire/Welcome to the Club/Epilogue/End Titles} from "The House that Dripped Blood" (1971) --Michael Dress --Suite from "I, Monster" (1971) --Carl Davis Opening and closing music: Magic and Ecstasy from "Exorcist II: The Heretic" by Ennio Morricone, and The Shadow of the Killer from "Death Rage" by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis.

It's time for another multi-part series on Blood on the Tracks. This time out Lee is covering the filmography of Amicus Productions, who were most famous for their excellent horror anthology films in the 1960s and 1970s. But they did so much more, and Lee is going to explore their output through the music that was featured in their films. --Spaceship to Mars from "It's Trad, Dad!" (1962) --Gene Viincent --Sweet Boy from "Just for Fun" (1963) --Clodagh Rodgers --Suite from "Dr. Terror's House of Horrors" (1965) --Elisabeth Lutyens --Daleks and Thals & The Eccentric Dr. Who from "Dr. Who and the Daleks" (1965) --Malcolm Lockyer --Suite from "The Skull" (1965) --Elisabeth Lutyens --Daleks and Robomen from "Dalek's Invasion Earth 2150 A.D."

Hill House to cykl klasycznych historii grozy, które z premedytacją podejmują gatunkowe schematy, ale ukazują je w nowej, od strony graficznej nieoczywistej formie. "Daphne Byrne" jest zwieńczeniem serii i trudno byłoby sobie wymarzyć lepiej narysowany finał od tego, co zaproponował Kelley Jones - autor znany z "Doom Patrol", "Sandmana" i przede wszystkim z wykreowania najbardziej przerażającego oblicza Batmana w historii.Rozmawiamy o odrealnionym, groteskowym Mrocznym Rycerzu w wizji Kelleya, która była zarazem ostatnią, jaką pod koniec lat 90. opublikowało kultowe TM-Semic (już pod szyldem "Batman & Superman"); o stosowanych przez niego technikach; o koszmarnym surrealizmie działającym ze zdwojoną siłą, gdy w centrum scenariusza nie znajduje się superbohater; o punktach wspólnych z "Obywatelem Kanem", "Omenem", filmami Hammer Film Productions i Amicus Productions; a także o tym, że wyspecjalizowana w serialach telewizyjnych scenarzystka Laura Marks nie do końca czuje formę komiksową, ale nie brakuje jej pojedynczych, interesujących pomysłów.Możecie wpierać nas na https://patronite.pl/NightslimePatronami dzisiejszego odcinka są:Paweł Jaksik, Jakub Kraszewski, Marcin Kalinowski, Krzysztof Sieja

Before the HBO Tv Series and before George Romero's Creepshow, Amicus Productions made this anthology adaptation of five stories from the classic 1950's EC horror comics. Join us as we review each segment, pick our favorites and compare the stories to source material!

In this episode, we discuss the influence of point of view on stories and movies presented as stories. Gather around the campfire and prepare for a spooky story as we discuss the 1995 cosmic horror In the Mouth of Madness and the 2017 supernatural drama Ghost Stories. Plus, we discuss Stephen King, the way the human brain processes stories and beliefs, and the way both movies use their scores to different ends.

Chris & Kelsey spend their Christmas in a series of spooky vignettes. The Classic Film: Tales from the Crypt (1972) "Five strangers get lost in a crypt and, after meeting the mysterious Crypt Keeper, receive visions of how they will die” (IMDb.com). A charming collection of EC Comics-style stories (including one about an escaped, psychopathic Santa), Tales from the Crypt is pretty much exactly what you'd expect. The Modern Film: All the Creatures Were Stirring (2018) "When an awkward date on Christmas Eve leads a couple into a strange theater, they're treated to a bizarre and frightening collection of Christmas stories, featuring a wide ensemble of characters doing their best to avoid the horrors of the holidays” (IMDb.com). Sometimes we watch a movie that's worse for how much promise it shows in an otherwise bad package. This is one of those times.

Entre o início dos anos 1960 e final dos anos 1970, a Amicus Productions rivalizou com a Hammer como uma das principais produtoras de filmes de gênero no Reino Unido. Criada por Milton Subotsky e por Max J. Rosenberg, produziu 16 longas-metragens de horror, de vários cineastas e com características próprias - entre elas, tramas em episódios, roteiros do escritor Robert Bloch (autor do romance "Psicose") e a busca pela essência da maldade humana. Para conversar com Marcelo Miranda sobre a Amicus e seus principais títulos e referências, o convidado é o crítico e pesquisador Carlos Primati. Este episódio teve apoio da distribuidora Obras-Primas do Cinema, que lançou no Brasil dois boxes com um total de 12 filmes da Amicus. Confira o volume 1 e o volume 2 da coleção.

We are thrilled to welcome our Special Guest, this week, Kristin Malaer, wife of half the podcast, Chris! She joins us on a fantastic ride through 5 segments of our latest anthology: Dr. Terror's House of Horrors. Dr. Terror's House of Horrors is a 1965 British horror film from Amicus Productions, directed by veteran horror director Freddie Francis, written by Milton Subotsky, and starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Five men enter a train carriage in London bound for (the fictional town of) Bradley, and are joined by a sixth, the mysterious Doctor Schreck (Peter Cushing) whose name, he mentions, is German for "terror". During the journey, the doctor opens his pack of Tarot cards (which he calls his "House of Horrors") and proceeds to reveal the destinies of each of the travellers. This provides the framework to tell five horror stories.

Lee Russell and James Murphy continue their terrifying journey through the filmography of Amicus Productions with their most fun episode yet. They talk a classic anthology with tiny murderous dolls, the voodoo-enthused extremities of a dismembered body, strange tailors (ooooh), and pretty young scissor wielding women. How can you not listen?

Happy end of the year, friends! As we draw the putrid cesspool that was 2016 to a close, Erik and Kyle thought they'd give you a fun(?) treat by talking about the two Dalek movies made in the mid-60s by Amicus Productions and starring the incomparable Peter Cushing. Interesting it will be to see how the same stories from the TV show are changed/truncated for the purposes of being very swiftly made, less-than-90-minute family movies. Enjoy!

This week Crypt Keeper Will and Vault Master Sam get into our first entry from horror anthology giants Amicus Productions, 1973's The Vault of Horror, featuring a plethora of British character actors and a directorial turn from Hammer stalwart Roy Ward Baker. There's plenty of stories to unravel with "Midnight Mess", "The Neat Job", "This Trick'll Kill You", "Bargain in Death" and "Drawn and Quartered". We had a lot of fun on this week's show we hope you enjoy it!

Welcome back to another season of Chronicle Podcast (An Almanac of Old World Horrors), this is season 2 episode 2. This is a podcast dedicated to discussing European Horror Cinema only and is the brainchild of podcaster Duncan McLeish (The Podcast Under the Stairs). Each season will run for 6 episodes and drop every two weeks with season 2 looking exclusively at European Horror Cinema through its Witches. With an emphasis on giving you an insight into some of the weird and wonderful stories behind the movies, we continue this new seasons journey with Mark of the Devil (1970). Where Witchfinder General marked a move away from the campy over the top theatrics of Hammer Horror & Amicus Productions for a darker more sadistic feel, Mark of the Devil raised the bar of shock to audiences who didn’t know whether or not they themselves were ready for it. Chronicle Podcast was researched, written, recorded and produced by me for you!! Join me next time to look at The Devils (1971).
