Featured review
Critically reviled Gallery of Horror stars Lon Chaney Jr, John Carradine and a slew of people who have absolutely no place being in the industry.
It's a 5 story horror anthology that isn't so much cheesy bad but old school plain bad.
Vampires, zombies, psychotics, witches and more are on display yet each story has a very familiar looking cast. Thats right, the same people play different characters throughout which prevent any chance of you becoming engrossed.
The plots are mostly silly, the sfx are genuinely laughable and Carradines narration segments are the absolute pits. It's not just his weak delivery or how much he comes across as if he's rambling without script but that background during such segments is head scratchingly dumb.
I like horror anthologys but this stinker has to go down as one of the worst.
The Good:
Lon Chaney Jr
The Bad:
Everything just looks so incredibly bad
Poor writing
Weak acting
Narration segments are the pits
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Not every horror anthology can be a Creepshow (1982) or a Trick r Treat (2007)
1967 was simply the worst year in cinematic history
