5. The Dunwich Horror (1970)

Episode 5 of Season 4! Host, Gratton Conwill and special guest, Matt Fields discuss The Dunwich Horror (1969). The Dunwich Horror is an American supernatural horror film that premiered on January 14, 1970 in Chicago Illinois, one of the scariest cities on record. It was directed by Daniel Haller and written by three men: Curtis Hanson, Henry Rosenbaum, and Ronald Silkosky. It was adapted from HP Lovecraft’s short story of the same name. The Dunwich Horror was yet another product of American International Pictures, known as AIP. And while many American movies are made in Hollywood, Daniel Haller and the gang opted to shoot most of The Dunwich Horror in Mendocino, California despite the movie’s humble Massachusetts setting. The movie stars Sandra Dee, Dean Stockwell, and Ed Begley, who died just three months after the movie released. Reviews from critics were mixed with some praising The Dunwich Horror for its polished appearance and eerie atmosphere. But others expressed dissatisfaction, drawing comparisons to Roger Corman’s earlier AIP films. But that hasn’t stopped The Dunwich Horror from being released on blu-ray and DVD all these years later.
