Lo sapevi?
- BlooperToby is offered a magazine pictorial in which he is to portray "the young Greek god Mars" (as translated in captions). Mars was the Roman god of war. The Greek god of war was Ares.
- Citazioni
Giuseppina (segment "William Wilson"): The card-player resembles the lover. He gets tired. No staying power, my dear.
- Curiosità sui creditiAfter the opening title credits, the following handwritten text (from Edgar Allan Poe's first published story, "Metzengerstein" - which is also adapted as the first story of this film) is displayed: "'Horror and fatality have been stalking abroad in all ages. Why then give a date to the story I have to tell?' Edgar Allan Poe."
- Versioni alternativeThe whipping of Giuseppina was cut in the original 1973 UK cinema release (titled "Tales of Mystery"), and subsequent releases were also edited. The 15-rated 1984 video (as "Powers of Evil") completely missed the entire "William Wilson" story, and the 18-rated 1990 French Collection VHS (titled "Histoires Extraordinaires: Tales of Mystery and Imagination") received over a minute of cuts to the whipping scene and shots of Wilson caressing a girl with a scalpel. The Arrow Blu-ray release (titled "Spirits of the Dead") is the full uncut version.

Recensione in evidenza
Three separate stories:
The third story makes the film. It's "Fellini-esque"! Fellini's wild imagery makes narrative sense (well, sort of), when applied to the story of an addled English actor stumbling around Rome at breakneck speed. The segment also features a startlingly original image of evil (an "Anglican devil," I think that's the Terence Stamp character's phrase). Maybe it's just me, but the segment's conception of the devil is among the spookiest things I've ever seen on film; and when you get right down to it, it makes a lot more theological sense then ugly, scaly guys with tails.
- Skip the first one. Just do it. If you really must ogle the young Jane Fonda, get Barbarella.
- Your call on the second one. Okay, but not memorable.
