"#124 on IndieWire’s list of the 125 Best Horror Movies of All Time. I give it 3/5.
It’s a British horror anthology film from 1945, so it’s bound to be a bit uneven and occasionally dull. The best short is definitely the last one, “The Ventriloquist’s Dummy.” But the frame story’s nightmarish ending is pretty great."

"A must watch for horror fans, clear lines can be drawn from this to many shows and movies of the last 70+ years"
