While it's certainly not likely to wow younger horror fans, those interested in a good old-fashioned mystery tale will have a good time.

Audience Reviews for Theatre of Death

May 10, 2012

Although Lee headlines this film he disappears halfway through which is a shame as his is the most interesting character here. Glover is a boring lead and the whole mystery isn't really that interesting. Setting a horror film around a theatre that specialises in horror is a good hook but it never really adds up to much in the end. Lee was getting better stuff with Hammer at this point.

A vampire mystery with Christopher Lee! Is the lady committing the murders? Is she really a vampire? Find out by watching. I really enjoyed this movie.
