Average Rating: 
Rating: - A very good 70's British Horror flick
Peter Cushing is at his clinically clean best as an ambitious and "do anything" collector of Historical Horror artifacts.
He finally lands on a horror collectors dream... the Skull of the "Marqui De Sade"
The Skull has a life force that kills at will and floats around in the midst a green fog like cloud. Once Cushings character obtains the skull all kinds of nasty horror stuff starts happening. The dream sequence is very well done. Chistopher Lee stars as the previous owner of the "Skull" ... Read More
Rating:  - Very good movie
Very good movie, with very good actors. I like this kind of films, with no effects like the modern ones, giving our mind time to act having a natural reaction infront the scary.

Rating: - At last on DVD in WIDESCREEN !

And now, the good folks at Legend Films have contracted with Paramount to release this and a fistful of other movies for the first time on DVD! THE SKULL is in full 2:35 Widescreen color, and also included is the trailer. The print is ... Read More
Rating: - A great Amicus film
* Dr terror's house of horror, I monster, And now the screaming starts, The House that dripped blood, etc. All this films and many more from Amicus are little gems from the british golden age of horror.
It's such a pleasure now to have The Skull with, for Hammer fans, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Nigel Green (Countess Dracula), Patrick Magee (Demons of the mind), Michael Gough (Dracula), Peter Woodthorpe (The evil of Frankenstein), Freddie Francis (Dracula has risen from the grave).
* The widescreen ... Read More
