Review of The Comedy of Terrors (1964) by Steve W — 31 May 2011
A really fun, playfully morbid comedy starring a quartet of genre luminaries. Director Tourneur brings his customary style to the proceedings, elevating the material to a quality that one might not expect for this sort of film.
It doesn't reinvent the wheel, but as a piece of lightweight macabre storytelling, it is never anything less than completely entertaining (if you find gallows humor to be your cup of tea, of course).
