A particularly creepy portmanteau film from Amicus with Ralph Richardson welcoming some not very enthusiastic customers at the gates of Hell. Each one is reminded what brought them there. The stories are fairly preposterous, particularly the first one, but it's good fun.
Joan Collins ( as Joanne Clayton )
Sex : No
Death : Strangled by a maniac dressed as Santa
Joan plays a murderess who finds the boot on the other foot
Chloe Franks ( as Carol Clayton )
Sex : n/a
Death : Unresolved but having let a homicidal maniac in the house her future doesn't look too bright
Another winning appearance from Chloe.
Barbara Murray ( as Enid Jason )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Barbara was a Rank School graduate who made an impression in British films at the start of the sixties but preferred stage work to films and later moved into TV. She retired in 2001 and moved to Spain. She died in 2014 aged 84.
Angela Grant ( as Susan Blake )

Death : Survives
Angela was a bit part actress active until the mid-eighties. She now works as a cheerleader for the Tory party.

Death : Survives
Susan was mainly active in the sixties as an actress and host of the TV series Glamour. This was her last acting role. She is now 83.
