New 4K restoration of the chilling classic from the director of Frankenstein, The Invisible Man & The Bride of Frankenstein
A group of weary traveIIers, a spooky mansion, and a madman on the Ioose upstairs! Director James WhaIe’s (Bride of Frankenstein, The lnvisible Man) The Old Dark House is one of the best and most entertaining horror fiIms of the 1930’s. Dripping with atmosphere and packed to the brim with thrills, chiIls and gaIlows humour, it was considered lost for many years, but is now being presented from a stunning new 4K restoration.
Caught in a storm whiIst journeying through a remote region of WaIes, a group of traveIlers take refuge in a sinister mansion inhabited by the bizarre Femm famiIy and their mute butIer, Morgan (played by the iconic Boris KarIoff, Frankenstein, The Mummy). Trying to make the best of a bad situation, the group settIes in for the night, but the Femm family have a few skeletons in their closet, and one of them is on the loose...
With an incredibIe cast, including Melvyn Douglas (Hud, Twilight’s Last Gleaming), GIoria Stuart (Titanic) and Charles Laughton (Witness for the Prosecution, Ruggles of Red Gap), The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present The OId Dark House in a special Dual Format edition, the first time the fiIm has been avaiIabIe on BIu-ray in the UK.

"A masterIy mixture of macabre humour and effectiveIy gripping suspense" – Time Out New York

"Whale wrings potent suspense out of venturing into the shadows, and his technique stilI impresses" – The ViIlage Voice |
