They discuss the anthology aspect of the movie and ask the question: is Death (Peter Cushing) really a good story teller?

They discuss the film as a low-budget Lovecraft adaptation, groovy title sequence, and the movies collage of cosmic horror and culty sex-ritual imagery. Expect trivia, goofs, and a look at the film as both a slog-sothoth and a uniquely 1970s piece of cosmic horror cinema.
