I don't know why I keep putting it off. Those anthology films that England released in the 1940s/1950s were all so good. And what a fantastic cast.

"The Ventriloquist's Dummy" is super creepy and features an incredible Michael Redgrave performance, but it's the framing story that always haunts me about this movie.Rick29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08358116647815569722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-17048732268815711562018-10-01T19:25:14.358-07:002018-10-01T19:25:14.358-07:00My favourite seems depend on what mood I'm in ...My favourite seems depend on what mood I'm in when I watch the movie. When I shared it with my daughter she was suitably creeped out by The Ventriloquist's Dummy (Redgrave is amazing!) and completely taken aback by The Golfer's Story. The Appearance of the macabre humour in the middle of it all really threw her for a loop. When it was all said and done, she loved it.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-45024043692152265542018-10-01T19:01:07.927-07:002018-10-01T19:01:07.927-07:00Paddy Lee, I really like the movie poster.

This movie is a Classic British horror anthology from Ealing Studios, which isn't known for making horror movies, but they hit this one out of the ballpark. I particularly liked "The Ventriloquist's Dummy," but they are all very good.Walter S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02507750468123235383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-14290184748734847262018-10-01T07:01:32.928-07:002018-10-01T07:01:32.928-07:00Hooray!
