User Review - 10/10 by Brian FThe very best of Amicus' horror anthologies, From Beyond the Grave is a creepy, funny and extremely well-made little horror film that outshines by a mile what Hammer was doing during this period. In a film full of great performances, the best are from Donald Pleasence using kindness as a weapon and from Peter Cushing, who combines a Grandfatherly air with a touch of eerie menace. Of the stories on hand, "The Gate Crasher" is moody but rather traditional, "An Act of Kindness" is interesting, strange brilliance, "The Elemental" is funny but rather uninvolving and "The Door" is quite, quite spooky. Best of all, the wraparound segments are excellent, with Cushing lording over his cluttered little antique store. All in all, a wonderful British horror film. Check it out.
User Review - 10/10 by Patrick OLovely old anthology horror, up there with Dr. Terror at the top of the pile :)
User Review - 10/10 by James OThis is an excellent horror film from the Highagate cemetary opening sequence till the end. The stories are well thought and planned and there is not a gorefest like todays modern horrors, it has more of a creepy erie feeling which i like, my favorite characters are the mirror demon, the antique shopowner, diana dors as the chav house wife , donald pleasence as the ww2 veteran and the ecentric medium , i will give this film top marks
User Review - 10/10 by James Rbrilliant. One of my favourite anthology-horrors
User Review - 10/10 by Zarinah H"From Beyond the grave" (1973) is one of the better Amicus productions. It stars Peter Cushing as the owner of an antiques store, Temptations Ltd, who sells relics that may be more than the potential buyer can handle. The movie is actually an anthology of four stories - the first stars David Warner as a customer who purchases an antique mirror from Cushing's character, and he delights in the fact that he got it at a 'bargain', effectively cheating the antiques' store owner of a profit. But, Warner's character soon learns that he got more that he expected when a seance unleashes an evil entity that demands a high price. In the second story, a henpecked husband strikes up an awkward friendship with a retired army officer [played by Donald Pleasence]. The husband steals a medal from Cushing's store, and later finds himself getting tangled up with Pleasance's character and his rather strange, otherworldly daughter, Emily. In the third story, a well-to-do man cheats Cushing by switching the price tags on a snuff box, and on his way home, finds himself confronted by a psychic, Mdm Orloff, who warns him that he is being haunted by an elemental, a parasitic spirit that sucks the very life force out of its victim. In the final story, Ian Ogilvy [who was also in another Amicus chiller] plays a man who purchases an ancient door from Cushing's store, and places it in his house, discovering to his horror that the door is a portal to a place that houses an evil spirit. Time slowly runs out for him and his wife [played by a very young Lesley Anne Down] as they try to escape a gruesome death. The acting is top-notch for this genre, and Cushing impresses as always. Fans of atmospheric supernatural tales will love these four stories, that have a moral in them too. A must-have for fans of the genre.
User Review - 10/10 by Jesse TUp to par with the other Hammer, Twickenham and Sheppperton studios 1970's horror anthologies. With a young Mary Tamm.
User Review - 10/10 by Senor Cbrilliant AMICUS film, was re-released last year on dvd, worth getting if you like the stories revolving around a central character, played by the late PETER CUSHING......i recommend this to be purchased!!
User Review - 10/10 by Luvunya OJust another reason to love these anthology movies. A particularly good entry into the genre, Peter Cushing is fantastic as always, David Warner gives a solid performance.
User Review - 10/10 by Jonathan GAlmost perfect, and what's not to like about a film starring David Warner, Peter Cushing, Diana Dors, Ian Ogilvy and Donald Pleasance? Four powerful stories by a master of the genre (the last is less effective, but still memorably executed), some wonderful visuals (the opening scene features a clever cut from a cemetery to the antique shop, and there's a wonderful shot of a seance centrally shot from a candle), and just enough humour not to unsettle the sinister foundation. I think I love this film a little, to be honest.
User Review - 10/10 by Colin RWonderful Amicus portmanteau with Cushing at his best as a malevolent antiques dealer. Buyer beware!
