Dr Terror's House of Horrors
Directed by Freddie Francis
Dr Terror is a mysterious fortune teller who boards a train and offers to tell fellow passengers their fortune with tarot cards. Five possible futures unfold: an architect returns to his ancestral home to find a werewolf out for revenge; a huge flesh-eating vine takes over a house; a musician gets involved with voodoo; an art critic is pursued by a disembodied hand and a doctor discovers his new wife is a vampire. But they all end in the same result…
One of the best anthologies from Britain’s Amicus Productions headlined by Cushing as a tarot card-reading Dr. Schreck, whose stacked deck spells doom for five train travelers.
Cast: Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Donald Sutherland

This was a lot of fun! Didn't check the cast before I watched so it was pretty cool to see such recognizable faces. I love a good anthology. Some of the stories were a bit hit and miss, but overall I didn't walk away feeling like that was a waste of time.
I wish Shudder had more movies like Dr Terror’s House of Horror. One of Amicus’s best anthologies from the days when Hammer ruled supreme.
Outstanding addition to shudder
Such a classic from my childhood
