Product Description

Horrors of the Black Museum (1959) is a British horror film starring Michael Gough and directed by Arthur Crabtree.[1] It was the first film in what film critic David Pirie dubbed Anglo-Amalgamated's "Sadian trilogy" (the other two being Circus of Horrors and Peeping Tom), with an emphasis on sadism, cruelty and violence (with sexual undertones), in contrast to the supernatural horror of the Hammer films of the same era.

Crime in the Museum of Horrors Review

Michael Gough suavely chews the scenery in yet another one of his revenge-inspired madman film roles. He does them so well, why hire anyone else? Please, let others be your guide to the quality of the movie. (Suffice to say that I love it, but then again it's exactly the sort of movie I love, so it doesn't have to try very hard!) I'll tell you about the DVD...The picture quality is a bit soft, more so in the darker scenes, but nothing too unpleasant. It'll look fine on a big television. (I check all my DVDs on a computer for consistency, but it's a bit less forgiving of image quality problems - which is a bonus, because I can spot them easier to let other people know!) It's an anamorphic (16:9 or "enhanced for widescreen televisions") widescreen presentation, framed at about 2.30:1. The colors are good, which is a good thing because it's a colorful film. The sound is decent, though mono (of course) and therefore nothing spectatular. The extras are abundant, and since the Amazon listing doesn't detail them (as of this writing), I'll list them:A video tribute to Herman Cohen (producer) by film journalist Tom Weaver and lifelong friend and associate, Didier Chatelain
English and French language option
Original US theatrical trailer
Original European theatrical trailer
Hypno-Vista opening featuring psychologist Emile Franchel*
Commentary by Herman Cohen (from archival materials)
Commentary by music composter G�rard Schurmann and film critic David Del Valle
Phone interview/video featurette with Herman Cohen by Scarlet Street publisher Richard Valley
3D motion menus
Scene selection, photo gallery, biographies, bonus trailers**, booklet insert****Now, about the Hypno-Vision introduction. It IS included on the disc (unlike the French release of this movie on DVD), but NOT as part of the feature as intended. Instead, it is an extra, and although it is widescreen, it's non-anamorphic. The feature's running time is 78m 06s because it doesn't incorporate the introduction...that the back cover reads "94 minutes" is a bit of a cheat in that respect.**Apart from the two trailers already mentioned, the disc also includes trailers for many other movies either related to producer Herman Cohen or VCI (the company that released this disc). They are: Target Earth (also newly available on DVD), The Headless Ghost, Blood and Black Lace, The Whip & the Body, City of the Dead, Ruby and The Bird With the Crystal Plumage.***The booklet insert isn't just a single sheet of paper with a chapter listing - it's a foldout, with a European poster reproduction on the inside and a liner note essay on the other. I think that's very nice indeed.Oh, and before I forget, the disc is region free, too! All in all, a very nice package for a relatively obscure little horror movie. If you like this one, also seek out "Konga" (also with Gough) and "The Woman Eater" with George Coulouris.
