Review of Tales That Witness Madness (1973) by W. W — 21 May 2011
Tales that Witness Madness is one of the many anthology horror films made in the 1970s. It was made by a British company (not Amicus) and was actually decent. It has four stories of murder and mayhem. The first one is "Mr.
Tiger", a story about a boy who sees an invisible tiger, yet no one else can. This is my favorite story, and the only one that really scared me at the end. The second story is "Penny Farthing", about a man who is haunted by the bicycle of his dead uncle.
The second weakest story. The third tale is "Mel", about a tree that falls in love with a man, but the man's wife despises the tree. Has a great, shocking ending. The final story is "Luau", about a woamn throwing a Hawaiian luau where her daughter may end up being the main course! Luau is probably the weakest story, because its too long and too boring.
TTWM hasn't been released on DVD yet, but its a great movie, so I would advise tracking it down.
