Vincent Price stars in this classic haunted house screamer from director William Castle. Five guests are invited to a haunted house party by millionaire playboy Frederick Loren (Price) and his glamorous but scheming wife Annabelle (Carol Ohmart). The plot unfolds to reveal the manipulative couple have turned the party into a contest as each guest is offered $10,000 to spend just one night in "the only truly haunted house in the World". What starts out as a party soon evolves into a night of terror as each guest, including the hosts, begin to question whom, if any will survive the night of horrors...
With Gene Barry already riding the video range as legendary gunfighter-turned-lawman Bat Masterson, independent producer Walter Mirisch hired old-timer Joel McCrea to play a rather less-dandified version in this routine Western released in Cinemascope. When his brother Ed (Harry Lauter) is cowardly shot in the back and killed, Bat accepts to run for county sheriff against the corrupt Jim Regan (Don Haggerty), only to learn that the real killer is someone entirely different. Not wanting the job of sheriff in the first place but only accepting to please a lady friend, the pious Pauline Howard (Julie Adams), Bat willingly breaks the law to aid an old friend (Walter Coy), almost losing both his position and his life in the ensuing shootout.
A disparate group are trapped on a remote island by a hurricane. On the island, a doctor works to make humans twice as small as we already are. This, apparently, will help prevent over population. Unfortunately, his experiments have also created some giant shrews. As the shrews run out of smaller animals to eat, they move in on the people in the house.
