One of the most recognisable faces in horror, Boris Karloff (or simply ‘KARLOFF’, as he was often billed) has been described as “to the horror movie what Fred Astaire was to the musical”. Presented here are the six films he made for Columbia Pictures, a collaboration which produced some of Karloff’s finest acting roles.In The Black Room, Karloff takes on a dual role as twin brothers in 19th century Europe. One of the twins inherits the family castle and suddenly the local women start disappearing… The Man They Could Not Hang, The Man With Nine Lives, Before I Hang, and The Devil Commands form the “Mad Doctor” cycle, a thematically linked series of films where Karloff always plays a doctor whose obsessions inevitably lead them to murder!And finally, The Boogie Man Will Get You is a delightful parody of the “Mad Doctor” films, starring both Karloff and Peter Lorre.Eureka Classics is proud to present all six films on Blu-ray.FeaturesAll six films presented in 1080p across two Blu-ray discsOptional English SDH subtitlesBrand new audio commentaries on The Black Room, BeforeHang, and The Boogie Man Will Get You with Kevin Lyons and Jonathan RigbyBrand new audio commentaries on The Man They Could Not Hang, The Man With Nine Lives, and The Devil Commands with author Stephen Jones and author / critic Kim NewmanStars one of the true icons of Horror Cinema Boris Karloff (Bride Of Frankenstein, The Mummy, Black Friday)All six films presented in 1080p across two Blu-ray discsOptional English SDH subtitlesBrand new audio commentaries on The Black Room, BeforeHang, and The Boogie Man Will Get You with Kevin Lyons and Jonathan RigbyBrand new audio commentaries on The Man They Could Not Hang, The Man With Nine Lives, and The Devil Commands with author Stephen Jones and author / critic Kim Newman
