Viewing Notes

Fourth film in the annual horror movie marathon at the Music Box Theatre, renamed as the Music Box of Horrors this year for various behind the scenes drama and politics.

Another film available on NWI that I held off on viewing once I learned it would be featured at the Box of Horrors. Fun horror anthology with a great wraparound. Christopher Lee looks so young I didn’t think this was a 60s film. Great to see an original release print from 1965 in Techniscope. Still looks great.
