Went to the Legend Films website on Thursday and ordered the Skull paying with paypal. The film arrived on Saturday. What service. Just watched it. It is presented in wide screen and is 83 minutes long. The IMDB says it should be 90 minutes long. Not having seen it in years I really can't tell if it was cut. Very clear transfer however. If you are looking for CGI effects and loud music go buy the new version of The Haunting. IF you are in the mood for a suspense film with psychological overtones, this is the one for you. Peter Cushing gives an outstanding performance. he literally carries the last half. Christopher Lee is here too, but sadly, he has little to do. Highly recommended. Have not seen this in many a year and am happy to say that it holds up well. The other films currently listed have no appeal for me. I am waiting for May when they will release the man who could cheat death. |

There's a memorable scene where Peter Cushing is looking through a huge magnifying glass - in a later film he spoofed the same scene, IIRC! |
