Horror House on SHOWTIME

VCR alert

Frankie Avalon in 'Haunted House of Horror' (aka 'Horror House' - 1969.

Never on US homevideo - rarely screened (altho based on my last couple of vcr alerts, it may have recently aired already on some of the more obscure cable channels like Cinemax 8 or TMC 6 - I don't know)

Thanks for the tip! Wrote it down on my calender and will definitely watch/tape it. Alt.horror rules!

I remember seeing this at the drive-in on a triple bill with 'the Oblong Box' & 'The Crimson Cult.'
