THE TINGLER 1959 (COLUMBIA)

A William Castle classic!!

Vincent Price stars as a pathologist who does autopsies on executed prisoners and he has a theory that fear is created by a creature that attaches itself to the spinal cord and a simple scream will kill it. His theory is proven when a mute woman is found dead and he takes the "Tingler" from her spine.

This movie is a far out Castle extravaganza that one cannot help but be entertained by. Price gets high on LSD in a scene that is one of the best ever in any film. Once again the audience gets to be part of the show as the Tingler gets loose in a movie theater and all hell breaks loose.

Castle was a true showman and a man who really loved his work. Too bad some movie makers aren't like that today. The supporting cast includes Judith Evelyn, Darryl Hickman, Pamela Lincoln, Phillip Coolidge and Patricia Cutts. This DVD includes the original colored scenes of blood in the bathtub and blood running out of the sink. See IT!! SCREAM FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
