Watch Catacombs For Free

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Great script, brilliant casting, fine direction and excellent black and white camera-work make The Woman Who Wouldn't Die (aka Catacombs) one of the most compelling low-budget thrillers of the 1960s. It received only a limited release back in 1965, when I first saw it (three or four times). And though I've kept my eyes peeled ever since, I've never encountered it on TV.So I was very happy to finally find it on DVD (excellent HD print) -- and it is as gripping as ever. Jane Merrow has the ingenue role and she was never as alluring. Georgina Cookson is truly terrific as her domineering rich aunt. The two main men in this story, Gary Merrill and Neil McCallum, are just perfect .Will not give away ANY of the plot here and adamantly advise you not to read any synopses. But believe me, if you enjoy old-time low-budget thrillers in the William Castle or Roy William Neill vein, you shouldn't miss this one. A treat from start to finish.

I did not see this film when it went on release nor can I ever remember seeing it on TV.So this was the first time I had seen this.Whilst no great classic it is still a very effective thriller.Gary Merrill plays a bought husband under the thumb of his rich domineering wife.A young niece returns and soon falls in love with Merrill.His wife has a crooked Secretary.Between the both of them they hatch a plot to murder her.However Merrill murders her before the planned time which complicates matters.He buries her in a shed.However when he and the niece spend time in the house they are haunted by the dead wife.There are a number of twists before everyone concerned are brought to justice.

Gary Merrill plays the husband of a rich woman (Georgina Cookson), who apparently keeps him around for hot sex. She can also put herself into trances, which is probably how she gets through the sex with Merrill. Cookson's gorgeous niece (Jane Merrow) shows up, and Merrill decides he wants to get it on with her. Merrill and his business partner cook up a scheme to off Cookson. After Merrill does the deed, he buries his wife in the pottery shed. Then they hire an actress to impersonate Cookson, so everyone else will think she went to Italy. Then the actress is offed as well. With Merrill and Merrow alone in his dead wife's house, strange events start occurring. Is it Cookson, back from the dead? Is she not really dead? Is someone playing a trick? The film works, despite the weird casting. It would have worked better with someone younger (and better looking) than Merrill. No one on the planet should believe a babe like Jane Merrow would go for this guy. He is in serious need of some eyebrow trimming, which would at least diminish his Cro-Magnon looks. And Cookson looks like John "One Step Beyond" Newland in a dress and wig. Merrow is worth watching, of course.

It is the first movie directed by the guy who was later guilty of SCREAM AND SCREAM AGAIN and also THE OBLONG BOX, both starring the fantastic, awesome Vincent Price. The one is a terror movie, but also with a bit of mystery and crime. It reminds us Henri Georges Clouzot's LES DIABOLIQUES plot. A man - Gary Merrill - and his friend plan the murder of Merril's wife, but things do not work as they intend...Twists, twists and twists again, that may also make you think of Alfred Hitchcock Presents' kind of topics. I also thought of Seth Holt's SCREAM OF FEAR, although I am not sure that the plot is exactly the same. I'll check in my vault, among the huge quantity of films I have. Anyways, I am pretty satisfied with this film I searched since a long time.
