Review of Dr. Terror's House of Horrors (1943) by Neil O — 25 Feb 2011
A fun Amicus portmanteau shot by "Carry On.." regular Alan Hume (The Bofors Gun, The Legend of Hell House, Runaway Train, Lifeforce). The house of the title is Cushing's term for his tarot deck, a device which smartly confines the drama as much as the rail compartment itself.
While uneven, the tales have no real clunker for a change - although writer Subotsky arguably recycled elements from this for later efforts. This would be fun to see with Steve Coogan's farcical series, Dr.
Terrible's House of Horrible.
