. Only William Castle could come up with such a bizarre and insane plot and make it succeed! Initially Castle had several seats in cinemas wired up to receive mild shocks in scenes where The Tingler would be running amok.

There is a totally psychedelic and wild scene which suddenly sprouts vivid technicolour from nowhere then later there is a showstopper when the movie literally comes to a shuddering halt as the horrid Tingler unleashes its terror in an acutal movie theater plunging the hall into a petrified darkness. Only screaming for your life may save you, otherwise its too late, The Tingler will grip your soul! Scream, scream, scream for your lives!

Another outrageous effort from the master of showmanship and among The Hot Spots favourite directors. A totally whacked out crazy cult classic, how Price performed his lines with a straight face remains a mystery to this day! Classic and furiously mad and hysterical stuff.
