Reviews

blindstalkerwxc Great too see something out of the ordinary by steve coogan, and pretty unknown but good cast.The 6 stories ( i think ) are of equal quality, they are original , more funny than scary , but that makes it the much more enjoyable.The only thing missing is your fair of nudity that would get you arroused if not stiff enough to see all six episodes in an entire afternoon.Overall good performances by all the actors, and steve coogan. He does possess that dark aura that not all comedians have . In conclusion; you could be pleasantly surprised by this horror/sci-fi comedy series. Have a nice stiff one.

Thorsten-Krings I quite liked DHHT. I picks up motives from popular horror films and turns them into spoofs. So one has to bear in mind that it's a different concept from Allan Partridge and also a complete different kind of humour. It certainly beats Carry on Screaming. Anyway, the writers really have a very good knowledge of the classic English horror film and portray it very lovingly with a lot of detail. That clearly shows in the quality of the sets, the costumes etc. Although funny it's never disrespectful. The stories are absurd but they work quite well as opposed to being just a series of one liners. That's difficult to achieve with a genre parody. It's also quite comprehensive in taking on all aspects of the horror film. So if you're a Hammer fan you'll enjoy this. If you're looking for "typical" Coogan, forget it. BTW: Honor Blackmann still cuts a nice figure at well over 70.

Robski Dr Terribles house of Horrible is a clever pastiche of tacky seventies horror movies. Each episode is introduced by the same character, the bald headed Dr Terrible, and the stories evolve from there. Steve Coogan plays the main character in each one.Especially memorable is the Fu Manchu spoof and the spoof of the early seventies horror movies, such as Tales from the Crypt, where several characters would tell a tale of doom.Coogan fans watched expecting Alan Partridge. To fans of horror this will be appreciated.

filmbuff69007 this awful show is the pits.neither funny or watchable the plots are rubbish.the jokes are nowhere to be found.Coogan has made many classic tv moments.but this is pure hell.hopefully this is the first and last series.one of the poorest shows i have ever seen.
