OMG OMG #Horror fans in the UK #HorrorFam the second film on tonight's #CellarClub is Bloodbath At the House Of Death!
23.05, Talking Pictures TV, with the usual intro by lovely Caroline Munro.
The film is an absolute stone cold horror comedy classic, written by Barry Cryer among others, and has Vincent Price telling people to piss off and Gareth Hunt and Don Warrington playing THE most adorable gay couple in cinema history.
Genuinely, genuinely excited about this <3
Getting ready for the first #CellarClub film in half an hour; this is one I've not heard of before, set in the thirties but made in the seventies: The Other.
Got myself a nice glass of Dark 'n' Stormy, a dog to cuddle and a duvet to cuddle him under :)
Wooooooo #CellarClub underway!
Caroline looking particularly gorgeous tonight
Ok so the film was written by the guy who wrote the novel, which @DavidAnnandale says was very traumatic for him when young...
Caroline says there's a frightening twist! Yay!
More female-presenting names than male in the credits, which is fairly unusual even now
I have to say I am currently in a state of ungrippédness, and vaguely looking forward to seeing if we get Yoga Piss Lady or Ian Botham's horrible feet in the adverts
Ok 15 minutes in, I'm predicting that the big twist is the second twin has been dead all along; only one of them is getting fed and talked to by anyone other than the first twin.
I'm very sad that the younger twin is called Niles and the elder is called Holland not Frazier.
They're almost but not quite as annoying and badly haircutted as the twins in The Twin Dilemma.
Ahhhhhh we've just had a portentous shot of Chekhov's Wishing Well: what's the betting that's where Holland's body is?
And... the adverts.
Fairy liquid.
Pantene shampoo.
The AA (that's automobile association, not alcoholics anonymous).
AND... damn... it's DANCING piss lady, not Yoga Piss Lady :(
I are disappoint.
And Febreze, and a very clearly dubbed from another language Seven Seas supplements advert
Ah boo the film's starting again
Oooo looks like Niles's granny (Ingrid Bergman) is trying to teach him Granny Weatherwax-style Borrowing.
Interest now more piqued
YAY one of the annoying children has had a horrible accident!
Ewwwwwwww Niles's got a severe finger wrapped in tissue paper ewwwww
Went to get a bag of cheddars and another drink in the adverts and nearly missed Yoga Piss Lady OMG!
James just said "I feel like I was promised The Exorcist and got an elongated episode of The Waltons", and I can't help but agree with that assessment
Well, that was definitely A Film.
YAY BLOODBATH AT THE HOUSE OF DEATH IS STARTING YAY
You know it's going to be a good film when the first line of it is "ohhhh SHIT!"
Nobody does exposition like Kenny Everett
Ahhhhh a pub as welcoming as The Slaughtered Lamb in American Werewolf <3
Ooooooo and here come Don Warrington and Gareth Hunt being the most adorable and wonderful cute gay couple <3
🎶 ...two throats a cutting
Fouuuuur in a beeeeeeed
Two axed to death
One blew up
One was hanged
Aaaaaand six were frozen tooooo deeeaaaath 🎶
"I'd like to report a dead body"
"Yes sir, what type of dead body?"
"Type? Well, er, upside down with big chests..."
YAY HERE COMES VINNY P!
Camp as Christmas and twice as wonderful.
Omg the Jaws theme joke! How did I forget the Jaws theme joke??
