Dead Of Night & Queen Of Spades DVD 1945 and 1949
DVD Synopsis and information:
Dead Of Night 1945
A group of strangers is mysteriously gathered at a country estate where each reveals a chilling tale of the supernatural. First, a racer survives a brush with death only to receive terrifying premonitions from beyond the grave. Then a teen's innocent game of hide-and-seek leads to an encounter with the macabre. Next, a young couple purchases an antique mirror that unleashes a horrific power from its past. In a lighter vein, two competitive golfers play for stakes that may haunt the winner forever. Finally, a renowned ventriloquist descends into an abyss of madness and murder when his dummy develops a mind of its own. But even after these frightening tales are told, does one final nightmare await them all?
Britain's venerable Ealing Studios brought together four brilliant directors-Charles Crichton (The Lavender Hill Mob), Basil Dearden (The Mind Benders), Alberto Cavalcanti (Nicholas Nickleby) and Robert Hamer (Kind Hearts and Coronets) to create this classic chiller that remains one of the most influential horror films ever made. This is the uncut and complete UK version of Dead of Night, now newly restored from original archival materials for the first time in decades.
Dead Of Night DVD and Queen Of Spades DVD are excellent set of old school thriller and horror films UK style.
The Queen of Spades 1949
A gambling craze is sweeping 19th Century St. Petersburg, yet a dashing Russian army captain (Anton Walbrook of The Red Shoes) is too impoverished to participate. But when he learns that an aging countess (an award-winning performance by Dame Edith Evans of Tom Jones) may hold the ultimate key to gambling riches, the desperate young officer will stop at nothing to steal the sinister secret for himself. When fortunes are won and lost with the turn of a card, will one man wager his very soul on a final twist of fate?
Yvonne Mitchell (Demons of the Mind) co-stars in this brilliant British chiller directed by Thorold Dickinson (Gaslight), featuring extraordinary cinematography by Otto Heller (Peeping Tom, The Ipcress File) and based on the celebrated short story by Russian poet Alexander Pushkin.
