The House That Dripped Blood (1971), directed by Peter Duffell.
Another in the Amicus Productions long-running horror anthology series. I think Asylum (1972) released the following year was a better selection.
The title is ridiculously inapt: there is not a drop of blood in the film and it was originally rated for general audiences. The producers went back to request an adult rating.
All the episodes are again written by Robert Bloch. The framing story is of a skeptical police inspector investigating a disappearance at a country house. The local police advise him there is something wrong with the place, which has known other uncanny happenings:
Method For Murder: horror writer Denholm Elliott (Alfie (1966), A Room with a View (1985), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)) is distressed to find one of his creations, a mad strangler, has come to life. Is the author cracking up and become murderous himself?
Waxworks: Peter Cushing becomes obsessed with the wax figure of a woman he once knew.
Sweets to the Sweet: cold widower Christopher Lee seems to mistreat his little girl, even throwing her doll into the fire. In return she reads books of witchcraft beyond her years.
The Cloak: in a comedic segment, ham actors Jon Pertwee (the third Doctor Who of the original series) and Ingrid Pitt (The Vampire Lovers (1970), The Wicker Man (1973)) are making an awful vampire film (Curse of the Bloodsuckers) when he acquires a opera cape that produces remarkable transformations.
It did better business in the US than in the UK.
Available on Blu-ray from Scream Factory with two commentary tracks: appreciative, fact-filled remarks by a fan, and an interview with the director.
