Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Michael O'Keefe Low budget horror from Crown International filmed in Surrey, England. A young British heir James Garrick(John Nolan)presents to a gathering of friends a movie he produced about his family that over a hundred years earlier were cursed by a witch named Mad Molly. The witch's prophecy as she was burned at the stake continues as Garrick's friends, who curiously watched the movie, soon begin losing their lives and limbs by various horrible methods. It becomes very apparent the power of supernatural forces is not to be taken lightly. TERROR is filled with gore and bits of nudity. Not exactly memorable, but fun to watch. The cast also features Carolyn Courage, James Aubrey, Michael Craze, Tricia Walsh and Sarah Keller.

udar55 Film producer James Garrick (John Nolan) begins to think there is some truth in his family being cursed by a witch when a series of murders start happening in and around an actor hostel. The only person of suspicion is Ann (Carolyn Courage), his cousin and only other living relative. This was Norman J. Warren's second horror film (after 1976's SATAN'S SLAVE) and it is certainly watchable, but definitely strange. That mainly comes from the film's clumsy plot execution, with things going from slasher to supernatural at the 50 minute mark with lots of lose ends. In fact, you never find out who is responsible for the murders in the film's first half. I mean, you can take a guess, but it is never confirmed. The film does benefit from some nice country locations and some bloody murders. There is also a really impressive bit where Ann's car is lifted into the trees while she is still in it. If you have a desire to see it, definitely grab the Mill Creek GOREHOUSE GREATS collection which features it, Warren's SATAN'S SLAVE and 10 other films for cheap (I got it for $5).

Michael_Elliott Terror (1978) ** 1/2 (out of 4) James Garrick (John Nolan) is a British moviemaker whose latest film just happens to be about his very own family. Back in the ancient days, his ancestors were responsible for the burning of a witch, who, before dying put a curse on any family member that would follow. In the present day, James is at his ancestors house showing his latest film when the winds start to howl and one of his actresses is brutally stabbed to death. Soon more and more victims start popping up, all murdered in a grisly fashion. Is this the work of Satan or is a mad psycho running loose? Terror is a very interesting film that mixes the witchcraft genre with that of a slasher film and the end results are satisfying, if not all what they could have been. I had never heard of this film before receiving the screener so I'm going to guess this is a somewhat lesser seen movie because it's interesting how the director made this slasher film a full year before the genre would really take off with Sean Cunningham's Friday the 13th. The film was also clearly influenced by Dario Argento's Suspiria, which is another interesting aspect of this movie.The film works on many levels but it's all basically due to the direction of Norman J. Warren who really knows how to build atmosphere with the use of music, color and strange camera angles. The opening sequence dealing with the witchcraft is very well done and in fact, I'd say it's done better than most witchcraft movies that came before this one. The atmosphere is very thick throughout the movie and includes some wonderful moments include one scene where a car is lifted into the air with trees. The director also pays close detail to the graphic violence, which should make any horror fan happy. All the violence is done in such detail that you can't help but think the director had a big smile on his face while doing them.There are several weaknesses here however, the biggest one being the lack of any real interesting characters. I've always believed the key element to a slasher is having someone to cheer for but unfortunately we don't have a single one here. Another weak part is the actually story, which doesn't make too much since but heck, that never stopped anyone from enjoying Suspiria. Outside of that I was pleasantly surprised with how effective this film was and I'm sure if more people saw it we could be discussing the ways it did have a minor impact in the genre.

Paul Andrews Terror starts in a large Country house somewhere just outside London that belongs to a film producer named James Garrick (John Nolan) where he happens to holding the premiere of his latest film to his close friends & colleagues, a horror film based on the long told legend of a Witch that was burnt at the stake by his ancestors & vowed revenge on all the Garrick's descendant's of which John & Ann Garrick (Carolyn Courage) are the last. Once the film has finished one of John's annoying friends Gary (Michael Craze) then tries to impress everyone with a party-trick, he appears to hypnotise an actress named Carol Tucker (Glynis Barber) but none believes it's for real & make him try to do the same to Ann. Much to everyones surprise he seems to succeed & Ann is put into a trance where she stands up, walks over to a sword hanging above the fireplace & attempts to kill James before snapping out of it. A short time later Carol is found brutally murdered. Things quickly become worse as almost everyone who associates with either James or Ann ends up dead. James is convinced that the Witch has come back to fulfil her curse & kill the last of the Garrick's... him!This British production was directed by Norman J. Warren & I have to admit that I rather liked it. The script by David McGillivray who also pops up in a cameo as a TV reporter, isn't perfect but I thought it was lots of fun in a bad 70's low budget exploitation sort of way. Terror opens with a really cool film-within-a-film moment that I certainly wasn't expecting, it then gallops along from one gory murder to another with a bit of padding between consisting of some wonderfully cheesy, bad, funny & downright entertaining dialogue that seem to have everyone endlessly saying 'bloody' & 'luv' as many times as they can in the same conversation in a Cockney accent, great stuff & they really don't make 'em like this anymore! Add to this a really funny soft-core porno shoot that has some priceless dialogue of it's own, a murder mystery, a strip show, hideously dated 70's cars & clothes, a strange bloke named Phil the Greek (Chuck Julian) & an over-the-top climax full of pointless supernatural goings-on! I just thought Terror worked as a whole, a film that is maybe better than the sum of it's parts, I had a great time watching it & as far as I'm concerned that's all that matters. On the negative side when the climax arrives the killers identity is bland & to be honest I'm not sure why the filmmakers decided to hide it in the first place & going by the film's logic & ancient curse why are people unconnected with the Garrick's killed like Phil the Greek?Director Warren does a fairly effective job, he creates some decent set-pieces like when Carol is chased into the dark wooden shed full of sharp dangerous looking tools but there are some not so effective ones like the silly bit when a car starts to levitate & float. He keeps things moving along at a reasonable pace manages to deliver some good atmosphere & did you notice the UK quad poster for one of his earlier exploitation films Satan's Slave (1976) that makes a prominent appearance in the background of several shots? The murders in Terror are quite brutal & gory, just the way I like them. Someone is stabbed & has a knife stuck through their throat, someone has their throat cut with wire, is impaled & then ends up in pieces in the back of a rubbish truck, someone has a broken plane of glass slice their throat open & generally speaking there was plenty of the red stuff being thrown around to keep me satisfied at least.Technically Terror is a pretty solid production, flying cars apart. The cinematography is nice enough, the locations, special effects & production design are all good while Terror is a competently made film throughout. The acting was OK & I really liked watching a horror film populated by adults rather than annoying American teenagers for a change.Overall I actually liked Terror a fair bit, it moves along at a nice pace, is gory, has a certain British eccentricity about it & it's good trashy exploitative fun throughout. I definitely recommend Terror, to horror fans in particular. They just don't, won't or can't make 'em like this anymore!
