Karloff appeared in "Black Sabbath" (1963) directed by Mario Bava. He made "The Raven" (1963) for Roger Corman and American International Pictures (AIP). Corman used Karloff in "The Terror" (1963) playing a baron who murdered his wife. He made a cameo in AIP's "Bikini Beach" (1964) and had a bigger role in that studio's "The Comedy of Terrors" (1964), directed by Jacques Tourneur and "Die, Monster, Die!" (1965). British actress Suzan Farmer, who played his daughter in the film, later recalled Karloff was aloof during production "and wasn’t the charming personality people perceived him to be".
