There are many, many slebs that I still cannot convince myself are separate people, mainly Dr Who related.

For instance, Simon Lack and Nigel Stock.

I bought The House That Screamed in an HMV sale yesterday. The USP was the comparison to Suspiria.

Watched it last night.

Hmm.

It has some tense moments, some g-o-g whipping, and an effective gothic intro/atmos, but ultimately has no real third act, and the second is a bit confused too.
