"One
of the funniest Carry Ons ever! Who is stealing virgins and turning them
into shop-window mannequins? What is the meaning of the gigantic hairy
finger found at the scene of the latest crime? What clues can the mad
professor (Kenneth Williams) or his deathly pale and impossibly buxom sister
(Fenella Fielding) provide to the hopeless Detective Bung (Harry H
Corbett)? Join the Carry On team including Charles Hawtrey, Bernard
Bresslaw and Joan Sims as they chill your spine in this hair-raising spoof
of the horror movie!" |

Watt....

Comments
One of the most consistently
funny Carry Ons. The gags just don't stop coming in this one. Based loosely
around the perennially enjoyable Hammer series of films, this is an
affectionate spoof that has enough going for it to be able to stand on its
own two feet. Special mention should go to Harry H Corbett, stepping into
the leading role for this, his only Carry On, and doing so admirably; he
fits in like he's been with the series since it began. Definitely one of the
best.
