About this product
Product Information
James Whale's horror-comedy classic is one of the first and best of the travelers-forced-to-spend-the-night-in-a spooky-house genre films. Driving through a dangerous rainstorm, Philip and Margaret Waverton (Raymond Massey, Gloria Stuart) and friend Penderel (Melvyn Douglas) must seek shelter at a foreboding Welsh mansion. Met by the disfigured, mute butler Morgan (Boris Karloff) and the bizarre members of the Femm family, the guests quickly realize that something is awry in the shadowy mansion. When the lights go out, the situation becomes even more ominous. Will the stranded travelers make it through the night in the old dark house?Product Identifiers

The Old Dark House
A terrific print of a wonderful old cult favorite. Stellar cast (Charles Laughton's first time in front of the cameras in the US), two academy award winners (Laughton and Melvyn Douglas), and two nominees (Gloria Stuart and Raymond Massey join an ensemble featuring some of James Whale's iconic character actors- 'John' Elspeth Dudgeon and the irrepressible Ernest Thesiger. The action is fast paced, the sets terrific, and the story, while stretching the credulity of the viewer, manages to surprise and delight. Karloff's turn as the mute butler is in turn fierce and filled with pathos. A really fun movie.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

classic early horror/suspense
this is a great early James Whale film... some interesting characters. And interesting to see early performances by Raymond Massey, Charles Laughton, Gloria Stwuart, Melvan Douglas and Lillian Bond. Less we forget Borris Karloff. I think one of the most interesting thing about this film is that you get to see sound film in its infancy...it certainly has suspense and humor....Not as terrifiying as it was in its day..but certainly a great a film that will hold you interest. I feel it is a must for film fans.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Bizarre Horror At It's Best
This is another film I've forgotten just how good it was until I recently re-watched it again. I have to say this is one of the best classic horror films I've ever seen. It's is bizarre, twisted and very good. Horace Femm - is the most sane of the insane Femm family, he's a very odd and nervous type of fellow. His sister, Rebecca Femm , is almost sane but very weird indeed. Saul Femm is the eldest brother and is completely insane pyromaniac. Sir Roderick Femm, the father, who is 102 and bedridden - he is a very creepy fellow but helps to fill in the story of the Femm family and their sick-o drunk butler Morgan. Yes this movie is definitely worth watching if you enjoy older horror stories involving insanity and creepy old houses. 10/10Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
