A mysterious, dark fortune teller named Schreck joins five travelers (Christopher Lee, Roy Castle, Kenny Lynch, Donald Sutherland, and Alan Freeman) on a train, offering to predict their futures with Tarot cards. The stories he sees in his deck of cards, or what he refers to as his "house of horrors" inspire five separate horror stories about the lives of each one of his traveling companions. The result is something out of TWILIGHT ZONE, as each man's life proves to be his own private horror show. For example, one man's wife turns out to be a vampire while another, an artist, is tormented by a severed but animated hand.
Among horror fans, DR. TERROR'S HOUSE OF HORRORS is universally accepted classic for its noteworthy cast and stylish direction. This DVD offers audio commentary from both Director Freddy Francis and Dark Side magazine editor Allan Bryce.
