His mission complete, Devereaux returns to France but as he moves in to expose the double agent, the danger and suspense builds to a heart-pounding conclusion in this lavish, globe-trotting thriller.
HOUSE ON
HAUNTED HILL
Vincent Price, Elisha Cook, 1958
(Plastic on back of DVD cover is slightly warped)
House On Haunted Hill - where the host pays you to stay! There'll be no valets, no mints on pillows. But each guest receives a much needed amenity: a tiny coffin...with a gun inside. With its blood-curdling opening shriek, its blend of goofiness and headstone sobriety and its twist-upon-twist finale, House finds a home among the legends of the silver scream. Vincent Price, the master of unctuous evil with credits from the House Of Wax to Edward Scissorhands, is at his oozily wicked best as a supremely wealthy man who invites a handful of strangers to stay at an eerie abode that's been the site of seven murders. Each guest who survives the night will be rewarded $10,000. Any takers?
A KISS BEFORE DYING
Robert Wagner, 1955
Bud Corliss (Robert Wagner) is having trouble being accepted by the family of his comparatively-rich girlfriend, Dorothy Kingship (Joanne Woodward). Dorothy's pregnancy is only going to make matters worse. Instead of working their problems out, however, Bud coldly murders Dorothy and leaves false evidence that she committed suicide. When Dorothy's sister Ellen (Virginia Leith) decides to look into the death, Bud begins to wonder if he wont have to kill again. Lensed by Lucian Ballard, one of Sam Peckipah's favorite cinematographers.
