Fun film tonight! Keeping the Castle theme going and falling asleep to the phenomenal documentary Spine Tingler: The William Castle Story. Night folks! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

Fenella Fielding was the uncredited Village announcer in the TV show The Prisoner! #frightclub #theolddarkhouse

Tom Poston characters are at the center of the Venn Diagram between Rodney Dangerfield characters and Don Knotts characters. . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

That is the only way this could have ended. It was the right level of ridiculousness to fit the rest of this film. #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

Bullseyes and Targets say the bells of St. Margaret's ... must be the Sex Pistols cover of the rhyme ... . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

That swamp sojourn was one giant octopus away from being a frame-by-frame remake of the climax of Ed Wood's Bride of the Monster. . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

And done! Here's my new drawing of Fenella Fielding for tonight's presentation of The Old Dark House. Love how that hair turned out! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

We're watching the 1963 one though. I don't think Hammer was even making movies in 1932! ... searches ... Yeah, they started in 1934. #TheOldDarkHouse #FrightClub

The Old Dark House is technically a Biblical Epic genre film, when you think about it... . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

I'd love to see a sequel crossover between The Old Dark House and The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, where Tom Poston and Don Knotts have a Neuroses-Off to determine the fate of the Youth Center, or something ... . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

omg her head on a seal 😂 I respect the film for getting sillier and sillier #frightclub #theolddarkhouse

Robert Morely looks like he would be type-casted as backstabbing Soviet / Nazi high command officials in WWII action movies, or as an insufferable aristocrat fanning the flames in movies about the French Revolution. . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

If they were going to have a musical stinger there they could at least have used oompah music. #TheOldDarkHouse #FrightClub

Fake Movie Facts: The Old Dark House was based on the Ernest Hemingway novel "The Old Dark House and the Sea." . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

Not knocking the Femm family hospitality, but when it come to William Castle sleepovers, I'd rather spend the night at The House on Haunted Hill; all the acid baths you want, and you get a swag bag complete with a loaded handgun and a fun-sized novelty coffin! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

Seduction of the Innocent...you can tell she's up to no good what with her poofy sleeves and ribbons and bows and that helmet hair. #TheOldDarkHouse #FrightClub

Loving Fenella Fielding's perfectly coiffed early 60s hair in this! She looks like she could be Audrey's evil twin from the Little Shop of Horrors remake! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

They only have marshes around the old ancestral manse? No moors? How's he supposed to keep off the moors if there's no friggin' moor to keep off of? #TheOldDarkHouse #FrightClub

A portion of the fortune? Does it come with a flagon with a dragon? #TheOldDarkHouse #FrightClub

Three empty seats at Tom Poston's dinner table ... they must be waiting for Larry, Daryl, and Daryl ... . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

Hmm ... did William Castle even have a gimmick for this film? I'm honestly not up to date on this one. Give us a skeleton on a string, a vibrating theater seat, a GhostViewer anything; we demand cheap thrills! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

The original's a lot of fun! Great Karloff performance! . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

It also seems kind of Disney #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

So wait, I'm lost, if he stays at the Haunted House, he gets a brand new car and gets to f*** that creppy guy's hot cousin. That's the set-up, right? . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

The Old Dark House would be a great name for an HGTC house flipping show starring Rob Zombie, imho. . #FrightClub #TheOldDarkHouse

I just watched The Old Dark House (James Whale, 1932) and rated it 8/10 ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Dark_House_%281932_film%29?wprov=sfla1 #films #cinema #cinemastodon #TheOldDarkHouse #JamesWhale #BorisKarloff #MelvynDouglas #GloriaStuart #CharlesLaughton #LilianBond

I promised never to tell anyone what I just told you! So you must trust me!

This movie doesn’t improve on the 2nd viewing. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

This old woman has a beard. Must be retired circus folk. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

Gladys has the right idea. I wouldn't go back to the house either! #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

That is a big lamp. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

The lights have gone out? I thought they didn’t have electric lights. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

Lillian Bond was seriously attractive. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

@RidersBlock So does anything actually happen in this movie?

#svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

Money isn’t everything. There’s also #Svengoolie and #StarTrek #TheOldDarkHouse

And Rebecca thought the first girl was annoying. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

Melvyn Douglas is also the grandfather of the wonderful actress and author Illeana Douglas. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

Lilian Bond was a cutie. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

I guess this was before the invention of sliced bread. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

#TheOldDarkHouse is a Pre-Code film, so of course they had to have a scene of Gloria Stuart changing clothes. #Svengoolie

No beds? What kind of Bed and Breakfast is this? #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

I figure the house in #TheOldDarkHouse must have inspired the Addams Family's mansion. #Svengoolie

@charity_froggenhall Yes, it was. #TheOldDarkHouse #Svengoolie

Turn around, don’t drown. #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse

And Melvyn Douglas! #TheOldDarkHouse #Svengoolie

Just watched "The Old Dark House" and I came for the horror but stayed for Ernest Thesiger saying "Have a potato".

Nothing can beat an old classic Universal horror film when it comes to coziness.

So what’s up with this house? Are there ghosts? Vampires? An Indian burial ground? Or is it just the creepy old people and their mute butler? #Svengoolie #TheOldDarkHouse
