It is so great. The movie within the movie involves a man that merges with an ant during an XRay or something goofy. That movie is called "Mant!" Joe Dante clearly had the best time making it.marie_dresslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06334550550983418668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-26535460294941873332020-11-30T22:28:40.240-06:002020-11-30T22:28:40.240-06:00The House on Haunted Hill is a great place to star...<i>The House on Haunted Hill</i> is a great place to start, but <i>The Tingler, Strait Jacket,</i> and the original <i>13 Ghosts</i> are not to be missed.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-82369728384304311952020-11-30T22:02:18.370-06:002020-11-30T22:02:18.370-06:00I have never seen anything by William Castle but I...I have never seen anything by William Castle but I really want to as I heard the dude was insane but fun.

If I remember correctly, the gimmick for that one was called "Emergo," and involved an actual (fake) skeleton flying around the theater.<br /><br />One of these days I should really get around to seeing <i>Matinee</i>, which is based at least in spirit on Castle.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-73221493607601918302020-11-30T17:36:56.135-06:002020-11-30T17:36:56.135-06:00I've never seen a Castle film that I haven'...I've never seen a Castle film that I haven't at least liked a little, if only for just how obviously he's a humbug and having fun with it.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-12595030476896973022020-11-30T15:21:20.919-06:002020-11-30T15:21:20.919-06:00I watched this for a reason no one else probably d...I watched this for a reason no one else probably did, Audrey Dalton. She didn't make a lot of films but I've had a soft spot for her ever since I saw the Clifton Webb/Barbara Stanwyck version of Titanic where she played their daughter when I was a kid. <br /><br />She didn't have much to do other than be terrified but she was appealing doing that. As for the rest-the Baron once revealed was disturbing, the story passable but as you said really wasn't enough for a feature and the Castle narration a hoot. Once was enough but I'm not sorry I watched it. joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-66358450428354515562020-11-30T12:27:01.975-06:002020-11-30T12:27:01.975-06:00Exactly.
