Karloff At Columbia (Standard Edition) (Blu-ray) Stars: Boris Karloff 1934-1942 USA Horror £19.99 Release Date: 14th February 2022 SYNOPSIS One of the most recognisable faces in horror, Boris Karloff (or simply ‘KARLOFF’, as he was often billed) has been described as “to the horror movie what Fred Astaire was to the musical”. Presented here are the six films he made for Columbia Pictures, a collaboration which produced some of Karloff’s finest acting roles In The Black Room, Karloff takes on a dual role as twin brothers in 19th century Europe. One of the twins inherits the family castle and suddenly the local women start disappearing… The Man They Could Not Hang, The Man With Nine Lives, Before I Hang, and The Devil Commands form the “Mad Doctor” cycle, a thematically linked series of films where Karloff always plays a doctor whose obsessions inevitably lead them to murder! And finally, The Boogie Man Will Get You is a delightful parody of the “Mad Doctor” films, starring both Karloff and Peter Lorre. SPECIAL FEATURES Includes: The Black Room; The Man They Could Not Hang; The Man With Nine Lives; Before I Hang; The Devil Commands; and The Boogie Man Will Get You All six films presented in 1080p across two Blu-ray discs Optional English SDH subtitles Brand new audio commentaries on The Black Room, Before I Hang, and The Boogie Man Will Get You with Kevin Lyons and Jonathan Rigby Brand new audio commentaries on The Man They Could Not Hang, The Man With Nine Lives, and The Devil Commands with author Stephen Jones and author / critic Kim Newman Details Here: eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/karloff-at-columbia-standard-edition/

This would be a nice one to have. Love Karloff, and any time he or Price get teamed up with Lorre it's usually a fun time.
