Puts You In The Picture


'Horrors Of The Black Museum' caused a furore on its release in 1959, shocking audiences and outraging public standards with its cocktail of garish colour, sadistic violence, sexual deviance and cha cha dancing. Hypnovision is a meaningless term: like several of the things on this poster, it doesn't actually appear on screen. Michael Gough doesn't so much chew the scenery in this as slather the whole set in ketchup and wolf the lot. Recommended!
