I didn't have a "Ghost Viewer", and the ghosts were visible. I'm just funnin' with Milner because of his turns in 13 Ghosts and the american TV show Adam 12. Now that I look at it, it seems Milner was in a few "number shows". Numero three-o! |

Stony, The Tingler and House on Haunted Hill are prob'ly my fave Castle films, although Homicidal is his best-regarded these days. 13 Ghosts I didn't care for, the ghost viewers are the only thing that make it fun. See John Goodman in "Matinee", by the way. |

![]() Macabre (1958) Dir. William Castle An Allied Artists Release 71 min. / B&W / 1.85:1 On DVD from Warner Archive ITB Shock Theatre #210 When a widowed doctor's three-year-old daughter is kidnapped and buried alive, he and his loved ones (a bunch of odd ladies, mostly, and his old, sickly father-in-law) head off to find her before her air expires. The only guy not getting involved is Sheriff Jim Backus(!), who has an ugly grudge against the doc that we're all going to learn in a couple of flashbacks. After years of directing B-movies, Mr. Castle set up his own production company to make horror films with a gimmick, and how: this was his first, and the gimmick, as shown in the poster, was that patrons were allegedly insured for $1000 against Death by Fright while watching it, and there were (fake) nurses standing by in the lobby, while out front at selected showings a hearse was parked. Nice job, Mr. Showman: the film enjoyed a healthy profit and led to a series of movies, all of which were better than this one, frankly. The plot's a muddy mess, no doubt because the book on which it's based was written by 12 different authors (one per chapter) using a pseudonym. Way too much on the doctor's muddled romantic entanglements ("Peyton Place set in a graveyard" is how Michael Weldon describes the film) but there are two huge shocks in the film that foreshadow thing to come with House on Haunted Hill and Mr. Sardonicus. Million-dollar Dialog: Blind Woman's response to a suitor's proposal: "Why should I get married? All men look alike in the dark." If the movie's a mess, at least it has the shock quotient needed to give us our money's worth. Originally played in theatres with Hell's Five Hours. |
