The first "portmanteau" horror made by Amicus Productions. According to Milton Subotsky, he was inspired to write a multi-story horror movie by his admiration for Ealing Studios' Dead of Night (1945), which used a similar format.

Dr Schreck's deck is the 1930 Paul Marteau version "Marseille" Tarot, based on 1760 woodblocks by Conver. The industrialization of printing in the 1880s meant greens and sky-blues were eliminated as designs were limited to 4 colors

Roy Castle genuinely played the trumpet, though expertly ghosted his performance here to the performance laid down by Tubby Hayes. He released "Dr. Terror's House Of Horrors/Voodoo Girl" as a 7-inch 45 RPM vinyl in 1965 (CBS 201736)

A novel of the film was published by Pan Books in 1965. The author visited the shoot, where he was startled to discover quite how drunk Bernard Lee was on-set. Similarly, a large liquid lunch left Tubby Hayes fairly incapacitated

Roy Castle buys a packet of cigarettes and immediately puts them in his pocket. This is because Roy Castle was a life long non-smoker. Ironically, he died of lung cancer, probably from secondary smoke after a lifetime in jazz clubs.

An all-timer in terms of the cast and some fun stories in the back half, but it carries all the typical Amicus horror anthology flaws as well. My ★★★ review of Dr. Terror's House of Horrors (1965) on Letterboxd: https://boxd.it/7ybngv #Hooptober #Horror #DrTerror #Letterboxd
Review of ‘Dr. Terror's House of Horrors’ (1965) ★★★
Film #25 of Hooptober XI: The Inevitable Streaming Legacy Sequel This 1965 film is a quintessential Amicus production: a horror anthology stacked with great actors that ultimately ends up being fine…
