Horror Hotel is the butchered version, it is very disjointed and usually available only via a dodgy print. City of the Dead is superb!

I loved this film ,it is an icon of its time and a classic of the genre available at Play.com ( entitled Redemption City of the dead ) for £5.99 two disc edition ,with interviews with the director and fellow forum member John Llewellyn Moxey even my 27 yr old, horror film buff daughter loves it.

I May be getting older ,but I refuse to grow up

I bought it on DVD ( set of 4) as Horror Hotel & the quality is decent enough.

I saw it on TV in the sixties as "City of the dead" it is as you say a superb

film!! (Apparently there is a remake currently in production).

there is also the 1966 hammer film the witches, penned by nigel kneale and starring joan fontaine. i think the film was released in the usa as the devils own.
