Default House Of Mystery (1961)

I have not seen this film for many, many years but always remember it as being an excellent thriller.
The 'House Of Mystery' (1961) starred Peter Dyneley, Jane Hylton and Nanette Newman.
To my knowledge this film has never been released commercially.
Would anyone have a DVD copy of this film from a television recording?

Cheers

Dave.

I've got a copy of this, but it may take a week or three to find it ! Feel free to keep reminding me...

Cheers Smudge. Much appreciated.
Good luck in your search. You must have literally thousands of titles.
Do you ever get a chance to watch them all again?

Dave.

I am nearing the end of a massive re-indexing exercise Dave, after which trades should be a lot quicker, and also after which I intend to sit back, put my feet up and watch some of the little gems I've unearthed during the process, that I haven't seen in ages.

As of Sunday the recorded count had just exceeded 2000 discs (that's discs, not titles) ; I reckon there's another 4-500 to go and this doesn't include the 1000+ shop bought items.

Probably nowhere NEAR Aphra's count though...

(Next project will be an extension to the house ! )

I have always wanted to see both you and Aphra's lists,just out curiosty.I am also finding it hard to come to terms with the concept that 'Smudge' is organised,there was a charm about the old "Now where did I put that film" Smudge

If you can open Excel sheets and still have my e-mail address, let me know and I'll send you the 'work in progress' list with pleasure.

Charming though the old approach may have been, there's the occasional swapper who's very keen to get his or her rare fillum and the old Smudge the Tortoise approach doesn't go down well in such circumstances ; hence the trying to tighten things up.

It'll save me the hassle of having 6-8 emails the same weekend about the same fillum in such circumstances, but it won't help me trying to get a WANTS list together.

I have loads, but I still know there are films out there yet to be discovered. Trouble is I don't know all their titles till I hear about them in places like this - so a WANTS list is a near impossibility...

Rob/Anybody who wants the list (in its current state - which is far better than it's ever been !) drop me a note if they still have my e-mail addy, or if not PM me with theirs and I'll send it along...

Cheers,

Smudge

Apologies to all who were expecting my list yesterday - I only managed to get a copy out to Rob and shortly thereafter my e-mail server decided it wasn't playing ball till near sleepy time.

I shall address the problem asap...

I did indeed ! And now I need you to PM with an address or an e-mail addy as (funnily enough) I got me dabs on it last night and will be issuing copies early next week I should think...

Hi Smudge,

I would like a copy of 'House Of Mystery', been after that one for years. Do you have Up the Junction and ‘Here we go round the mulberry bush’?

Many thanks

Martin

Hi,

Is it a recording from TV, I do remember seeing this on Meridian a few times in the 90s. As this has never been released then it will be analogue.

Can you be more specific about the recording of it?

Thanks

Martin

Your best bet is to go on e-bay and to email the seller direct.
