Schrei, wenn der Tingler kommt: Directed by William Castle. With Vincent Price, Judith Evelyn, Darryl Hickman, Patricia Cutts. An obsessed pathologist discovers and captures a parasitic creature that grows when fear grips its host.

“William Castleu0026#39;s u0026#39;The Tingleru0026#39; is one of the most extraordinary horror movies ever made. Low budget, silly script, bad dialogue, uneven acting, gimmicky to the extreme (with or without u0026quot;perceptou0026quot;), but it STILL manages to amaze. Itu0026#39;s a kind of trojan horse, being a cheesy b-grade thriller with a hidden core of surrealism almost worthy of Bunuel or Cocteau.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enMemorable performances from horror legend Vincent Price as the scientist obsessed with explaining the strange phenomenon he labels u0026quot;the tingleru0026quot;, and Judith Evelyn (who had a bit part in Hitchcocku0026#39;s u0026#39;Rear Windowu0026#39;) as a bizarre deaf mute who owns a silent movie theatre, elevate this above most of Castleu0026#39;s overrated output. The classic acid trip scene (I think the first ever), the memorable short colour sequence, and the William Burroughs-like monster make this something really special. Not to be missed!”
