Nine classic British thrillers. In ‘The House in Marsh Road’ (1960) a troubled man plots to kill his wife, with the help of his mistress, to inherit her country house, which turns out to be haunted. In ‘The Trollenberg Terror’ (1958) a scientist arrives at a small alpine village by the mountain of Trollenberg to investigate the decapitation of a mountaineer. But nothing can prepare him for what lurks in the radioactive fog and the mountain peak. ‘Fire Maidens from Outer Space’ (1956) follows a group of astronauts as they travel to the 13th moon of Jupiter. There, they meet a group of beautiful women who are seeking mates. However, they also live in fear of a dangerous monster. In ‘Tread Softly’ (1952) a murder occurs backstage at a London theatre before the performance of a musical. In ‘Blood of the Vampire’ (1958) Dr. Callistratus (Donald Wolfit) carries out sinister experiments on his patients at a mental institution but a new arrival threatens his clandestine operation. In ‘The Fall of the House of Usher’ (1950) young traveller Jonathan (Irving Steen) visits his noble friend Roderick Usher (Kay Tendeter). But upon arrival, Jonathan discovers that Lord Roderick and his twin sister Lady Usher (Gwen Watford) are both seriously ill as a result of a curse placed upon their house by an ancient ancestor, dooming the siblings to a horrible early death. In ‘The Monkey’s Paw’ (1948) Mr. Trelawne (Milton Rosmer) comes into possession of a magical monkey’s paw which can provide three wishes – but at a price. ‘Crow Hollow’ (1952) follows newly-wed Ann Amour (Natasha Parry) as she goes to stay at the ancient home of her husband Robert (Donald Houston) and his three eccentric aunts. The stay proves to be traumatic for Ann, who becomes convinced that her life is in danger. In ‘The Curse of the Wraydons’ (1946) Philip Wraydon (Tod Slaughter), an inventive and remorseless man who worked as a spy for Napoleon, harbours a serious grudge against England and, in particular, his brother’s family. His killing spree inevitably draws the attention of the police – but they erroneously identify Philip’s nephew Jack (Bruce Seton) as the murderer. With the net closing in on him, Jack faces a race against time to prove his innocence. Can he work out who the real killer is?
