If you've never witnessed Tod Slaughter in action, then CRIMES AT THE DARK HOUSE is a great place to start. Slaughter truly lives up to his name, as he drives a stake through a sleeping victim's cranium in the opening scene! After assuming the dead man's identity, he learns that he's hit the jackpot, and has inherited an estate.
Upon arrival at his palatial new home, the new "Sir Percival Glyde" sets out to live a life of ease and debauchery with one of his cute chambermaids. Alas, "Glyde's" life gets complicated by several meddling pests, forcing him to kill nearly everyone in sight! Watch, as he gleefully dispatches his victims, then dumps their bodies in a secret burial ground! Listen as he chuckles, chortles, and cackles his way through his hideous crimes! This is Mr. Slaughter at his absolute best!
No one else could play the uproariously unscrupulous "Mr. Glyde" quite like this. Overwrought? Over the top? Of course! That's what's so bloody stupendous about Mr. Slaughter! He has been sadly overlooked, and deserves to be seen...
