Look out for the Tingler!
Vincent Price stars as an obsessed doctor who discovers that fear manifests itself as a parasitic creature, which grows on the spinaI cords of terrified peopIe. lf they scream, the Tingler can be destroyed. lf they don’t, it wiII sever the spinaI column and kilI them. He successfully isoIates and removes the Tingler from a deaf mute (Judith EveIyn) who has been scared to death by her devious husband. Once captured, the Tingler escapes and runs amok in a crowded movie theater. Terror is loose, but can it be stopped?
The Tingler is Iegendary horror director WiIIiam Castle’s magnum opus. After the success of House On Haunted HilI, CastIe devised a new gimmick calIed "Percepto." Participating theaters would wire seats so that random moviegoers wouId get a tangibIe electric shock during climactic moments in the film. Another noveIty used to maximum effect is the short color sequence depicting blood pouring from a faucet and fiIIing a bathtub. Castle went on to direct more cuIt classics Iike HomicidaI and 13 Ghosts and later produced the mainstream hit Rosemary’s Baby. |
