I really love this Film, I was excited when I saw Dr Terrors House Of Horrors on the Classic Monsters site, as I really like the Amicus Anthologies, some are better than others, but I really enjoy the Film.
Creeping Vine, starring none other than Alan Freeman! is very good fun, but I do think that Disembodied Hand, starring Christopher Lee is the best out of all the stories, as it stood out, and was quite amusing in places.
Peter Cushing as Doctor Schreck is another great performance, and interesting, as he tells the Fortunes of each Individuals Fate.
Nige Burton & Jamie Jones have produced another well presented Publication, of this Classic Film.
The layout, and pictures are fantastic, and I reaaly found this one to be one of the best regarding Amicus.
Fine work from The Classic Monsters Team, another classic covered.
