Plot Synopsis:
The high priests of horror—Vincent Price (Theater of Blood), Christopher Lee (The Whip and the Body), Peter Cushing (The Blood Beast Terror) and John Carradine (The Black Sleep)—unite under the same Gothic roof in the wickedly entertaining House of the Long Shadows. When a young novelist (Desi Arnaz, Jr., Billy Two Hats) spends a night at Baldpate Manor to win a bet that he can turn out a bestselling thriller in 24 hours, he gets more than he wagers on. The grizzly Grisbane clan arrives to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a ghoulish family secret. And their dinner party has murder on the menu! Lightning. Thunder. Torrential rain. Clattering shutters. Creaking doors. A locked attic. A sinister secret. Murder! All the ingredients of the classic Old Dark House tale come together with the screen’s greatest gruesome foursome in this tongue-in-cheek chiller directed by cult filmmaker Pete Walker (The Flesh and Blood Show, House of Whipcord). Co-starring Richard Todd (Home Before Midnight) and Sheila Keith (Frightmare).
NOTE: This is the same transfer as our 2015 HD Master, but encoded at a higher bit rate and on a dual-layered BD50 disc, giving the feature 30mbps or more. So, it should look better than the previous release that was on a BD25 single layered disc. We added English subtitles and a slipcase.
