Movie review - "The Premature Burial" (1962) *** (re-watching)

 Watching this you do constantly feel "this would be more fun with Vincent Price" but Milland is a good actor, suits the period. It's a very good story, with fear of premature burial, and actual premature burial. I like Hazel Court more this time. Richard Ney is hilariously wet but I was prepared for him. Bit too much exposition at the end from the sister - better if this had been dramatised throughout. (Richard Matheson didn't do the script for this one, Charles Beaumont and Ray Russell did).
