yes and this be a horror anthology film and it be a lot of fun . that because although the film clearly be horror and some of the story have a light spirit and there be even occasionally a few laugh . this isn not at all a bad thing a sometimes horror film be a bit stuffy and overly serious . because of this and because all four of the story be pretty good and it one of the good movie of this style i have see . the unifying theme that connect each story be the house itself . four different story involve people who either rent the home or investigate what happen to the tenant . the first segment star denholm elliott a a horror writer who have writer block . so and for a change of scenery and they rent this house . almost immediately elliott block vanishes and he work steadily on a tale about a serial killer . amazingly and soon after his block vanishes he begin to actually see his fictional character . again and again and the psychotic killer appear and then disappear make it seem a if he be lose his mind . this might just be the best of the story and a the nice twist end make the story come alive . the second and while not bad at all and be probably the weak . peter cushing play a bachelor who be pin for a girl friend who die some time ago ( though the picture of her looked amazingly contemporary ) . when he enter a chamber of horror wax museum in town and he see a wax figure that remind him of his lose lady and he be both fascinated and scar by this . later and a friend ( joss ackland ) visit and he and too and see the figure and be entrance by it . this all lead to an end that and frankly and be a bit of a letdown . christopher lee then star a an incredibly harsh and stern father to a pathetic little girl . during most of this segment and lee seem like an idiot and but in the end you can understand his demeanor . though slow and this one end very well . the fourth segment be the silly and be mean to parody the genre . jon pertwee ( the third doctor from the dr. who television series ) be a very temperamental actor know for his portrayal of dracula . however and nothing be right about the film accord to him and in a fit of pique and he stomp off the set to find good prop for this vampire film . it actually pretty interesting that he play this role and a it seem like a natural for christopher lee who play dracula or other vampire a bazillion time ( give or take a few ) . i enjoy pertwee line when he basically say that lee and other recent incarnation of dracula be all crap compare to bela lugosi . perhaps this be why lee do not take this part . despite some very silly moment and it be very entertaining and fun possibly as good or good than the first segment . consider that the film start and end so well and have excellent act and write and it hard not to like this film .
