The Tingler (1959)

Horror Films Of The 1950's (28 movies items)

"Another of William Castle's "gimmick horrors", this one is no more effective than I have found his other films to be. It has only the distinction of being a little more silly and unbelieveable than his other efforts. The plot makes little to no sense, and is filled with red herrings and side plots that go absolutely nowhere. The film is mostly a series of audience manipulations, without a story to hold them together. Luckily, Vincent Price is there to keep things watchable, but it can become rat"

Movie Reviews (1701-1750) (50 movies items)

" This is a fun monster movie that is highlighted by having Vincent Price playing a scientist that discover that a monster can only be discovered by a tingling sensation prior to death and one can survive it by screaming one's lungs out. It is refreshingly unserious and the moment with a bathtub in red color with a hand sticking out is a memorable moment and striking to watch. A refreshing unserious film that is hard not to love. "

"Idea on mainio vielä vuosienkin jälkeen, kun Pricen esittämä lääkäri löytää selkärangasta tingler-otuksen, joka kuolee vain jos uhri huutaa pelosta. Castle kuulemma asenteli teatteripenkkeihin tärinäominaisuuksia, jotta katsojat oikeasti säikähtelisivät ja alkaisivat kirkumaan salissa. Aitoa b-meininkiä, b-elokuvien kultakaudelta."

"Legendary actor Vincent Price stars in one of the best horror films from the 50's. The plot is a little silly yet very creative, about a doctor who discover that a creepy creature inhabits every one of us and feeds of our fear, being controlled only by our screaming. Top-notch sci-fi horror from William Castle, director of House on Haunted Hill and Strait-Jacket"
