Unseen Tales of Terror From Barker and Corbett

[Andy_S]

Just watched the horror movies "Annabelle" with my daughter - at her insistence. (Not bad, as horror movies goes.) Anway, got home and was surfing the Tube for similar tales of terror and came across the three below.

The funny thing, is, I am a lifelong fan of the work of these two gentlemen, and had never seen a single one of these classics before. Had anyone else in the UK? It is almost uncanny.

"Village of the Smiths"
A nightmare morality tale: An odious married businessman away for a dirty weekend with his attractive secretary gets a sinister comeuppance. Was the innkeeper who welcomed them to the hotel a dead man - or does madness explain his plight?
(Note classic Barker at 3:35)

"Dr Death"
What do you do when you visit a doctor for a minor complaint only to discover that everything around him is withering away? Brilliant build up of suspense as one gruesome coincidence follows another - and at last comes the shattering climax.

"I Married a Poltergeist"
Amityville-style tale of a desperate man who congratulates himself after being freed by her death from a despised spouse - but after the wake is over, he begins to suspect that she may not quite be finished with him....

Really, I am astonished I had never seen any of these before. The first two are classics.
