Most helpful review Carry on Screaming

  • superb.........

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    The Carry On series ran from 1963 to 1978. Carry On Screaming is one of the best, and also one of my favourites, as it is a spoof of the hammer house of horror series. it is also set in the victorian era, which i have always found fascinating. harry H corbett from steptoe and son takes the leading role with peter butterworth as his sidekick. they are superb. well worth renting out.

    Its one of the best ones. Yes the humour is not very sophisticated and you can see the jokes coming a mile off but Kenneth Williams was never better, and many of the usual cast (including Charles Hawtrey, contrary to the previous review!!) are there.

  • One of the Best Carry On's

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer from Gloucester , 12 Jan 2011
    I am a a huge fan of the genre anyway and don't care that people find them 'dated' and 'crude' but this is one of the best of the lot. Great performances from Harry H Corbett, Kenny Williams, Joan Sims and Fenella Fielding with an unusally good script.

    This micky take of another of my favourite genres 'Hammer' seems to have a bigger budget than other Carry On's, has quite a few predictable but funny gags and is all set against a story that even Hammer would have been proud of. I also don't find this one as crude as some of the later ones.

    If you arent normally a Carry On fan I suggest you watch this one first, you might get hooked!!
