Review

"Though nothing earth shattering, AND NOW THE SCREAMING STARTS is a fine slice of gothic British horror, only marred by a middle act that drags somewhat. This is Beacham's best genre performance, and she proves herself to be a fine actress and underrated scream queen (as well as delectable eye candy). Ogilvy also does his best with his part, as does the veterans Cushing, Magee and Lom... Baker's skillful direction is complimented by Tony Curtis' (not the actor) gorgeous set designs and Douglas Gamley's thunderous score (Gamley was Amicus' house composer). Surprisingly, the special effects and make up still hold up fairly well today." - George R. Reis, DVD Drive-In
