Viewing Notes

Terror in the Aisles Christopher Lee Triple Feature event! Good one to revisit for me.

Second movie at the event and with Gary Sherman there to introduce and provide a thoughtful Q&A after the screening mostly discussing his time with Christopher Lee, who has a small role in the film. I only vaguely remembered bits of the movie so it was good to see again. Forgot how bumbling Donald Pleasence is as the chief detective. Sadly it was a DVD projection so the mono audio sounded horrible through the PA. Very muffled so many of the choice lines weren’t understood. And Pleasence has all the choice lines.
