A tongue-in-cheek trilogy of terror!
In the tradition of The House that Dripped Blood and Tales From a Crypt comes The Monster Club, starring genre superstars Vincent Price and John Carradine.
When elder vampire Erasmus (Price) literally gets a midnight snack from horror writer R. Chetwynd - Hayes (Carradine), he invites him back to a local hot spot where all the guys are ghastly and the girls are ghoulish! There three spine-tingling tales unwind to the beat of rockin' tunes from an array of pop performers.
The star-studded cast also includes Donald Pleasence (Halloween), Britt Ekland, Stuart Whitman, Richard Johnson, Simon Ward, Barbara Kellerman and Patrick Magee, and features music by UB40 and The Pretty Things. Directed by Roy Ward Baker (The Vampire Lovers, Scars of Dracula) and based on stories by author R. Chetwynd-Hayes (From Beyond the Grave), The Monster Club, available for the first time on DVD, is an enduring cult classic for fear fans of all ages.
