The Comedy of Terrors (1964) is a American International Pictures comedy horror film directed by Jacques Tourneur and starring Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Basil Rathbone, Boris Karloff, and Joe E. Brown (in his final film appearance). The film also features Orangey the cat, billed as “Rhubarb the Cat”. It is a rare blend of comedy and horror, much in the vein of Universal Pictures’s 1948 classic Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.

    Was looking forward to this but unfortunately is Hulu, and not available outside of US.
    Thankfully most films on the site can be viewed in Europe.

    I’m sorry. I’m just your old school Oregon sysop. I don’t get to determine geopolitically determined intellectual property rights management.

    A couple thousand of you guys show up a day on a regular basis for relatively mild entertainment. Content determined with the help of my Rottweiler Daisy, who is very gentle unless you yell at children.

    It all falls into my grand plan of making a living being paid less than minimum wage ;)

    Daze Dog

    I don’t get to yell at kids either, but that isn’t such a bad thing. I think we all got yelled at enough.

    Now you have met your 199 lb program director and his 80 lb dog who is gentle, but could flatten a car tire.

    All children belong to Daisy. Content belongs to rights owners. I don’t get choices. I just try to write good blogs that people like. Since 25% of you are people that visit a lot, and that’s about 2500 people, I hope I made your day better.

    If you like my meager efforts, it sure wouldn’t hurt if you told someone.

    Take good care.
