If memory serves me, 1981's "The Monster Club", imported to the US by ITC, was included in one of those syndicated horror movie packages (think Seymour Presents), and I recall seeing this on a Saturday afternoon one time.
Horror legends John Carradine & Vincent Price share top billing in this movie, which is an anthology including three short stories based on the works of R. Chetwynd-Hayes, played by Carradine in the film. Donald Pleasance ("Halloween"), Stuart Whitman ("Night of The Lepus", ex-Cimmaron Strip), and Britt Eklund co-star.
Chetwynd-Hayes was not a fan of how his stories were adapted, and felt Carradine was too old for the role. As we know, Carradine would turn to radio in the fall of '81 to begin an annual series of radio dramas for NBC radio.
Rating: B.
