Description

Tom Chantrell double-bill Horror movie poster painting depicted in b&w to (perhaps) reflect the fact the movies it promotes were obscure low-budget affairs. Chantrell was more famous for his series of Horror posters for Hammer films during the 1960s and early 1970s. Interestingly, Chantrell �borrows� the image of the cowering woman for WHISPERS OF FEAR pretty much as she appeared in his earlier painting for FRANKENSTEIN CREATED WOMAN (1967) � see additional image.

DOCTOR MANIAC (1974)

�A mad scientist (Mark Burns) is conducting hideous occult experiments at the family estate of Brattling Manor, monkeying about with things man was not meant to know, including the transfer and containment of living souls. It's only a matter of time before he begins to experiment on the souls of human beings . . . including his own family.�

Was shot under the title SHADOWS OVER BRIDGE PLACE, but later released as HOUSE OF THE LIVING DEAD and CURSE OF THE DEAD to cash- in on the then-popular zombie movies, even though there are no zombies in the movie whatsoever!

WHISPERS OF FEAR (1976)

�A woman inherits an old house in Wales, but is driven to madness and murder by jealous locals.�

Director: Harry Bromley Davenport.

That look of Fear expressed by the woman captures it all. . . You can see why the artist went back to that image!!!
