Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAlthough the publicity for this movie made much of the fact that the three greatest horror stars of the day, Vincent Price, Sir Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing were all in it, the three actors have in fact only small roles in this movie, despite star billing. Cushing's role is confined to one scene, without the other two, and the Price and Lee characters have a very brief scene together only at the end of the movie. The combined footage for all three actors only comes to about one-fifth of the total running time.
- GoofsWhen Keith escapes from the police, after he has severed off his own hand, he jumps over a short fence/style and rolls on the grass on his landing. Using pause you can see his real hand come out of his cuff just as where his stump should be
- Quotes
Superintendent Bellaver: That bloody chicken wasn't killed, it died of old age.
- Alternate versionsBritish prints of SCREAM AND SCREAM AGAIN have small differences from AIP's American Theatrical cut, with the American version removing Bellaver clumsily throwing a stone at the speedy cliff-climbing super-human Keith, and a bottle-swigging old drunk peeping at Keith and Sylvia fooling around in the convertible. The final shot of the British print is also different, with the credits scrolling over a long shot of Dr. Browning's lab heard over soundtrack music, rather than on the American print which has the credits being presented over a black screen with The Amen Corner's "Scream and Scream Again" playing. Another thing omitted from the American version is a brief but significant dialogue exchange between Vincent Price and Christopher Lee: "But what of the dream?" asks Price. "There is only nightmare" replies Lee.

Featured review
A killer who has a literal thirst for blood is prowling the nightclubs for fresh young victims. The police decide to set a trap to catch this man. A young policewoman poses as his new victim while wearing a wire. The killer meets the young policewoman and takes her with him to a secluded spot where he proceeds to drink her blood...
Vincent Price in interviews a number of years after the film was made, said he never understood the script at all. Not surprising, as the novel featured aliens and the film changed them to Communists (or something like that). And that is probably the least of the problems...
I mean, the choking of women and the pointless blood sucking? A jogger who is getting his legs removed? Yellow acid for some sort of research? It does not really all add up. Really sweet cars, though.
Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee appear, though not much. Heck, even Vincent Price does not really show up until the second half. But if you like these guys, do not mind waiting, and are okay with not really understanding what you are watching, check this one out.
