City Of The Dead (a.k.a. Horror Hotel) -- (1960) -- (Movie Clip) Help Her, Lucifer! Straight to historical business, British independent Vulcan Films (which would soon become the better-known Amicus) begins in 17th century Massachusetts, with Elizabeth Selwyn being burned, Fred Smith leading the mob, and Valentine Dyall, as agonized Puritan Jethrow, praying, opening City Of The Dead, 1960, a.k.a. Horror Hotel.

Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, A -- (Movie Clip) Comedy Tonight! Director Richard Lester with the opening tune, as catchy as any in composer Stephen Sondheim's catalog, delivered with the credits by star Zero Mostel as slave "Pseudolus," who gets caught by his owners (Michael Hordern, Patricia Jessel), in A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, 1966.

City Of The Dead (a.k.a. Horror Hotel) -- (1960) -- (Movie Clip) Any Witches Buried There? Arriving at the spot named in the American-release title (Horror Hotel), student Nan (Venetia Stevenson) with hitcher Jethrow (whom we know to be 17th century witchcraft cultist), then the innkeeper (Elizabeth Selwyn), whom we saw burned in the opening, in the British-made City Of The Dead, 1960.
