PRODUCT INFORMATION
Tom Poston (Zotz!), Robert Morley (Theatre of Blood), Janette Scott (Paranoiac), Fenella Fielding (Carry On Screaming!), and Joyce Grenfell (Stage Fright) star in The Old Dark House, a riotously funny horror-comedy from director William Castle (The Tingler).
When American salesman Tom delivers a car to a remote Dartmoor mansion, he becomes stranded overnight along with the eccentric Femm family. As the feuding relatives begin to kill other off over their inheritance, Tom must survive until dawn.
A unique collaboration between William Castle and Hammer Film Productions, The Old Dark House is an inventive remake of the Universal horror classic.

Shipping
No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
Other
We do not sell bootlegs. All product arrives from the distributor or is directly from the filmmakers. All items are new and sealed. Some indie titles or signed editions may not have shrinkwrap.
