Six bone-chilling tales from the vaults of Columbia Pictures, starring a host of the classic horror genre’s most celebrated names, including Ralph Bellamy (Lady on a Train), Nina Foch (Escape in the Fog), Rose Hobart (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde), Jack Holt (Cat People), Boris Karloff (The Criminal Code), Peter Lorre (M), and Fay Wray (Thunderbolt).
In Behind the Mask, the dastardly Dr ‘X’ murders his patients and smuggles narcotics in their coffins. Black Moon sees a cursed daughter return to the island where her parents perished in a voodoo ceremony. In Air Hawks, pioneering aviators are tormented by rivals operating a horrifying death ray. Island of Doomed Men sees an undercover agent infiltrating a remote penal colony presided over by a madman. In Cry of the Werewolf, a beautiful female lycanthrope vows to murder those who discover her family’s secret. And, for those whose nerves are still intact, The Soul of a Monster tells the tale of a woman who makes a diabolical deal to save her husband’s life.
This essential three-disc collection marks the UK Blu-ray premiere of all six films, and features an array of fascinating contextualising extras, including newly recorded commentaries, critical appreciations, and rare archival short films, as well as a 100-page book containing new and archival writings. Strictly limited to 6,000 individually numbered units.
