The Ghastly Ones (1968)

In the chilling masterpiece from cult director Andy Milligan, The Ghastly Ones spins a haunting tale of revenge and bloodshed that is sure to send shivers down your spine. The plot weaves through the shadowy corridors of a spooky Victorian mansion, the eerie setting of a family gathering for a will-reading. A formidable fortune awaits three married couples, but there's a catch – they must endure a night within the mansion's foreboding walls to claim their inheritance. As the night unfolds, a deranged maniac, desperate to claim the fortune for himself, emerges from the house's dark corners. One by one, the guests start meeting their gruesome ends in a horrifying display of carnage. The mansion turns into a macabre playground where death comes by pitchfork impalement, decapitation, dismemberment, and brutal knife attacks. Amongst the splattering gore and chilling terror, an unsettling scene steals the spotlight where a grotesque hunchback savors live rabbits, amplifying the mansion’s grotesque horrors. Drenched in a relentless flow of blood and terror, The Ghastly Ones is a shockingly cheap horror film that offers thrills and chills in equal measure. As the victims fall, the question remains - who will survive this nightmare to inherit the fortune?

The Ghastly Ones is a horror movie featuring Richard Romanus and directed by Andy Milligan.
