Horrible Horror (1986 Video)
8/10
A treasure trove of schlock.
20 April 2019
Ten stars for the clips, minus two for lame hosting. If you like to revel in the wonderful awfulness of 40's-60's sci-fi and monster movies, this abbreviated collection may be for you. Most clips are enough to elicit good-natured chuckles, though a few run a bit long. Includes some great Bela Lugosi interviews from the 30's as well. Not being familiar with host Zacherley, who shows up at intervals, this was the first time I'd seen him. I'll take it on trust that he was popular some years ago, but here he's mostly just annoying---you may long for the voiceover riffs of Mystery Science Theater/Rifftrax. Still, this is a great compilation of clips from flicks that actually frightened audiences back in a time before today's explicit levels of gore, violence and occultism. Makes you think about how hardened we've become.....
