Our story opens with a Scotland Yard inspector investigating the disappearance of an actor who has just moved into a house with a very mysterious past. The house now becomes the focus of our film and we are privy to four stories that all center around this house of evil.
Our first story, 'Method for Murder' is about a writer who begins to lose the ability of knowing fact from fiction. In essence he is becoming insane and some peculiar things take place. Our second story, 'Waxworks' is about a man who while walking around a wax museum comes upon a wax figure that resembles a woman he once knew. Once again we see the beginnings of a man losing his sanity over something rather simple. Our third story, 'Sweets for the Sweet' is about a governess who is hired to care for a young girl. The governess soon learns that the father is very strict with his daughter and that the daughter is not what she seems. Finally, we come to our last story. 'The Cloak' is a tale of a horror actor who while out shopping in a second hand store comes upon a cloak that he feels will add some realism to a part that he is working on. What he doesn’t realize is that there is more to this cloak than he can imagine.
'The House That Dripped Blood' is a wonderful collection of some of the greatest actors of horror.
Peter Cushing,
Christopher Lee, and
Ingrid Pitt. Along with
Denholm Elliott,
Jon Pertwee, and
Joss Ackland, they give us wonderful performances to make a great show. Although everyone is fantastic in the film it is Jon Pertwee as Paul Henderson the missing horror actor that steals the show.
Scream Factory brings this wonderfully done horror tale to Blu-Ray on May 8th 2018. The quality of the Blu-Ray is excellent and the sights and sounds are exquisite. This is definitely going to make a wonderful addition to that personal library and it is a definite must see. Our stories are expertly put together and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Enjoy.
