story of an evil house includes two cast members from "A Clockwork Orange"
12 May 2012
Daniel Haller had been Roger Corman's art director before making his directorial debut with "Die, Monster, Die!". It's the typical hokum that you can expect of the genre, with Boris Karloff as the patriarch in an English estate hiding a deadly secret. One particularly ridiculous scene is when Nick Adams's character says of himself and his fiancée "We were in science class together," since no one calls it science class in college. Yep, it's one of the many absurd but enjoyable horror flicks from the '60s, this time based on an H.P. Lovecraft story. Not any kind of masterpiece, but still fun. Suzan Farmer is a real fox!

Am I the only one who thinks that Nick Adams's character looks like Tintin?

PS: the cast members from "A Clockwork Orange" are Patrick Magee (Dr. Henderson here, Mr. Alexander in the latter) and Paul Farrell (Jason here, the homeless man in the latter).
