Dead Of Night 

This spooky anthology connects five original stories by H. G. Wells, John Baines, E. F. Benson and Angus MacPhail, framed as nightmares from guests at an English countryside manor.

Named by Martin Scorsese as the fifth scariest horror film of all time, and ranking at #35 on Time Out’s 100 Best Horror Films, Dead Of Night will have you on the edge of your seat.

“There’d been anthology movies before Dead Of Night, and even a couple of silent horror anthologies. But Dead Of Night brought the format to the mainstream. It was a massive hit. And it did so by lulling its audience in a series of increasingly scary vignettes. … Dead Of Night still packs a wallop and sends the shivers right up your back, even almost three-quarters of a century later.” – Nerdist
