I'm sure I have the very thing to tempt you. Lots of bargains. All tastes catered to. Oh... and a big novelty surprise goes with every purchase. Do come in... any time. I'm always open." Oh boy! A novelty surprise? Wait. Is this a trick? Join your faithful Grue Crew - Doc Rotten, Chad Hunt, Bill Mulligan, and Jeff Mohr - as they meet the proprietor of Temptations Ltd., the sinister shop found in From Beyond the Grave (1974). Decades of Horror 1970s Episode 116 \u2013 From Beyond the Grave (1974) An anthology of four short horror stories revolving around a British antique shop and its mysterious owner. IMDb   Director: Kevin Connor Writer: Robin Clarke, Raymond Christodoulou; based on stories by R. Chetwynd-Hayes Cinematographer: Alan Hume Cast \u201cTemptations LTD\u201d (Connecting Story)  Peter Cushing as The Proprietor of Temptations Limited Ben Howard as Burglar \u201cThe Gate Crasher\u201d David Warner as Edward Charlton Wendy Allnutt as Pamela  Rosalind Ayres as Prostitute - Edward's first victim Tommy Godfrey as Mr. Jeffries Marcel Steiner as The Face \u201cAn Act of Kindness\u201d  Ian Bannen as Christopher Lowe Diana Dors as Mabel Lowe Donald Pleasence as Jim Underwood Angela Pleasence as Emily Underwood John O'Farrell as Stephen Lowe \u201cThe Elemental\u201d  Ian Carmichael as Reginald Warren Margaret Leighton as Madame Orloff Nyree Dawn Porter as Susan Warren \u201cThe Door\u201d Ian Ogilvy as William Seaton Lesley-Anne Down as Rosemary Seaton Jack Watson as Sir Michael Sinclair From Beyond the Grave is the last of the Amicus horror anthologies, or portmanteaus if you will, and Decades of Horror has covered six of seven such films. Jeff is predisposed to like  From Beyond the Grave because it is directed by Kevin Conner, the same man that directed Motel Hell, one of his favorite films. Doc is impressed by cinematographer Alan Hume\u2019s work and goes into some of his other credits. The penalties doled out by the proprietor of Temptations Ltd. seem a bit severe for the sins committed in Bill\u2019s view, but he still has fun with From Beyond the Grave. Chad loves Margaret Leighton\u2019s portrayal of Madame Orloff and the other members of the Grue-Crew adamantly agree.  Possibly the least familiar of the Amicus horror portmanteaus, From Beyond the Grave still receives a high recommendation from the Decades of Horror 1970s Grue-Crew. It might be the last, but in their opinion, it is not the least. Gruesome Magazine\u2019s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror 3-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s. In three weeks, the next episode in their very flexible schedule will be Lisa and the Devil (1973), a Mario Bava film.
