Spine Tingler: The William Castle Story on Sky Arts 1 HD tonight at 11pm


Spine Tingler: The William Castle Story
Thursday, 6 June at 11pm , Sky Arts 1 HD (Sky 129, Virgin 281)
Another chance to see the
brilliant documentary about the life and work of famous B-Movie producer and director William Castle. A master of publicity, Castle started making cheap horror films in the late 1950s, luring audiences to such films as The Tingler and The House on Haunted Hill with a battery of gimmicks, including 3D effects, fake skeletons and cinema seats hooked up to vibrating buzzers. With contributions from John Waters, Terry Castle, John Landis and Roger Corman among others.
