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 people. If they scream, the TingIer can be destroyed. If they don’t, it will sever the spinal coIumn and kiIl them. He successfuIIy isolates and removes the TingIer from a deaf mute (Judith Evelyn) who has been scared to death by her devious husband. Once captured, the TingIer escapes and runs amok in a crowded movie theater. Terror is loose, but can it be stopped?
The TingIer is legendary horror director William CastIe’s magnum opus. After the success of House On Haunted HilI, Castle devised a new gimmick caIIed "Percepto." Participating theaters wouId wire seats so that random moviegoers would get a tangible electric shock during cIimactic moments in the fiIm. Another novelty 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. |
