    So sad that Peter Cushing had lost his wife around the time of this movie. He's such a great actor and I've heard that he was great to work with too. That role must have have been difficult for him to play, and yet he's amazing as always. One of the true horror greats and sad we lost him.

    Seeing him later during film exploration in more fun and unusual roles was amazing, from At the Earth's Core and those times he was Doctor Who, and he always managed to bring an air of dignified mischief to them as well. The story of him and Christopher Lee being asked to leave a cartoon matinee for laughing like mad bastards always warms the heart~

    Even more, when his wife first died, he didn't even want to work. Christopher Lee had to drag him into "Horror Express." Speaking of, I'm sure we've all heard the story Lee liked to tell about being emotionally blackmailed into doing the later Hammer Draculas. But taking note of all the pictures of Lee with his wife and daughter with Cushing on the set of "Dracula A.D. 1972" (something not especially prevalent with their other movies together), I'm convinced Lee really signed on to do A.D. '72 so he could keep Cushing company and Cushing wouldn't be so lonely.

    He was allowed to leave and receive punishment first because he was the most innocent. However, he still wound up in hell because of his financial scheming. The rest are still confined to their torment of being forced to relive their final acts over and over until being allowed the time for their suffering to end. The interpretation of Hell here is that it is essentially a recycling area for souls to be cleansed.

They were all directed by Freddie Francis, produced by Amicus founder Milton Subotsky, and contained fine casts of veteran British actors, notably Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Amicus was Hammer's main competition in the horror genre, and actually outlasted them.

    Cushing was awesome as always and was an incredibly nice guy with a great sense of humor too from what I've heard, it's a pity there aren't too many like in left in Hollywood, in fact we're pretty much left with the dead opposite these days. It really was particularly sad when he lost his wife, he adored her and was completely devastated and never got over it. In fact when he got diagnosed with prostate cancer not too long afterwards he didn't bother getting any treatment, even though without it he still ended up living another 10 years.

    I loved Tales From the Crypt. I saw it with my mom in NYC TV in the 80s, the best story was with Peter Cushing, my mom also would give a middle finger when the crypt keeper said " Whos next, perhaps you?" and I would laugh so hard at this. My mom now is 77, and she still creeps me out when she says the line from the Monkeys Paw segment, " I wish for lots and lots of money" to mess with me, great video!

    That Tales from the Crypt series remake of 'All Through the House' scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. I'd just gotten a new TV for Christmas, and that episode was one of the first things I happened to watch on it one late Saturday night. For weeks after I was scared to death to look out my window, afraid I'd see that psychotic Santa grinning in at me. Even today it's one of the creepiest episodes of the entire series, imo.
