A classic anthology, a inspector from Scotland yard is sent too investigate the disappearance of a famous actor and is told of other strange things linked too the missing actors home.
First story we have a horror author ( Denholm Elliott) who moves into the house with his wife and starts writing his new novel but begins too see the killer from his novel.
Next Peter Cushing moves in and sees a waxwork of some one he once knew and is strangely drawing too it.
Third story Christopher Lee moves in with his young daughter and hires her a nanny, the nanny can't understand Lees strange behaviour towards his daughter .
Lastly Jon Pertwee plays a horror actor working on his new movie whom acquires a cloak supposedly from a vampire.
A enjoyable set of tales with the usual wrap around tale involving the inspector.
A early role for a pre terminator Linda Hamilton, who is part of a young couple whom end up in a town full of murderous children who have killed all the adults and worship what walks behind the rows. I can't watch this now with out thinking of this episode and especially this scene from South Park.
It's enjoyable enough but always enjoyed the two films that followed more with three being by favourite.
Now watching .
