Icons of Horror: Boris Karloff

Here, for the first time on DVD, are four of Boris Karloff's finest chillers from his peak years in the 1930s and 1940s, all demonstrating his amazing range. In the Black Room, he plays twin brothers - one good, one evil, naturally - in a small country where beautiful women seem to turn up missing. The Man They Could Not Hang and Before I Hang present him in his classic "Mad Doctor" persona as forward-thinking scientists who run afoul of the law and become crazed killers. And in the Boogie Man Will Get You, he sends up that image in a delightful farce that also stars Peter Lorre and Larry Parks. It's a collection all fervent classic-horror fans have been eagerly waiting for!
