- Dead of Night is a 1945 British anthology horror film (a gothic or horror anthology) made by Ealing Studios; the individual stories were directed by Alberto Cavalcanti, Charles Crichton, Basil Dearden and Robert Hamer. The film stars Mervyn Johns, Googie Withers, Sally Ann Howes and Michael Redgrave. The film is probably best-remembered for the ventriloquist's dummy episode with Redgrave.
Dead of Night stands out from British film of the 1940s, when few horror films were being produced in the country (horror films had been banned from production in Britain during the war), and it had an influence on subsequent British films in the genre. Both of the segments by John Baines were recycled for later films, and the possessed ventriloquist dummy episode was adapted as the audition episode of the long-running CBS radio series Escape - Розваги
It just goes to show you don't need blood and gore like modern horror films to scare the living daylight out of you. This film is a genuine chiller. Superb.
Yes I’ve only seen clips and it looks terrifying
I remember watching this film when I was about 10 years old. I'd snuck downstairs to watch the telly after my parents had gone to bed (as kids did in the 80's/90's) and this had just started on BBC2 and I absolutely loved it! I've been trying to find it for years, as my memory of the name, the plot etc was a bit faded and all I could remember was, "a man in a house, in a living room with an open fire with a bunch of strangers, but they're all linked somehow..)
So glad I've finally found it. It only took 25 years!! 🤦🏼♂️😂
Happens to me all the time! Still hunting for some😊
I remember watching this movie on TV for the first time during the early 90s. I was supposed to go out with my family but girls being girls, they took much longer time to be ready, so I was flipping channel while waiting for them, and I stopped at this movie because I have always been fond of old B&W movie. I think I caught the movie just at the beginning but missed out the credit, so I have no idea what the name is. However the spooky story immediately captured my attention. Just when everything was getting interesting my sisters announced they’re ready and I had no choice but left without knowing what movie it is. Fortunately it only took me a few years to run into the VHS tape of the movie in the local library because the cover of the tape happened to be a still of a scene I remember from the movie. Eventually I even bought a copy of the VHS tape online (that’s before the DVD days)
This movie is in my top 10 of favourite movies of all time . I never forgot it since I watched at 10 years old .
When even the trailer scares the shit out of you, you know it's a good movie.
It's brilliant, easily ranks in the top 10 ever made. Michael Redgrave and his evil doll Hugo are unforgettably spine chilling.
Definitely, especially for 1945, it was this film that inspired the American film company, Amicus films to make their anthology films to compete with the British Hammer horror films.

Best horror film ever.
Chilling without having to resort to gross gore.
Terrific direction of photography, with the shadows and twisted camera angles, all adding to the surreal atmosphere.
i might need to watch this
The last episode with the doll!!! Michael Redgrave!! What a brilliant chilling performance
As a horror buff (and believe you me i''ve seen everything) this is one my all time greats. Fantastic directing, superb writing and great acting...What more does a horror addict need? 10 out of ten.
Yes it is!!!!! I love this movie!
What else is worth a watch?
I watched this with my mum when I was way too young! Scared the living daylights out of me, especially as I had a ventriloquist dummy bought for me for my birthday!
😂same experience. I
This is one of my go to movies every Halloween
Great movie
This is a absolute classic you have to watch it if you haven't seen it
Best ghost story horror film ever! It is a must see for any horror fan!
My favourite horror movie of all times .
SUGARPOP73 good taste!!
Obra maestra
Best watched late at night (which is when I first saw it). The print didn't have the best sound and at 1 am, the experience became rather surreal. What a great movie, though. Probably the best horror anthology movie in my opinion (with Creepshow coming second and Tales From The Crypt third).
Big Huge I loved tales from the crypt as a kid... Yeah I loved horror movies since being like 6yrs old... Tales from the crypt was my fave... It got less scary as I watched more and grew up ... By age 12 I wasn't scared of any horror movie not even The Exorcist...
I'm curious to know what's very scary about this movie?
This is one of my favourite movies
I've have seen this movie many times during my life, and still, find it unsettling.
Absolutely brilliant, one of the best to have come out of Ealing …
the greatest horror film ever made ...the template of countless legendary shorts, screen adaptations, ...and the greatest TV series in Amerian television ..''The Twilight ZONE''
It also influenced the likes of EC Horror comics, Tales from the Crypt, The Hitchiker show, Tales from the Darkside, Amicus stuff and Creepshow.
Just watched and was astounded just how many Twilight Zone eps were based off this. Truly brilliant movie!
A brilliantly terrifying movie from our fellow filmmakers across the pond, one Ealing Studio's best productions; highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a good fright.
This movie is a masterpiece.
Sir Michael is magnificent!
An absolute classic film..
An excellent horror movie. The acting and all the short stories are just outstanding.
The best b/w horror film ever made. An outstanding english classic, vintage with atmosphere. An all time great along with the Ealing Comedies. This time they got it right.
My very favorite horror film! Never watch it when you are alone at night. Just a suggestion.
Isn’t that the best way?
Best supernatural horror film ever made.
Every British person of my generation saw this film on the Midnight Movie in our teens - we were all scared by Hugo the weird ventriloquist's doll. There is also a reference to the real life Road Hill House murder from the 19th century earlier in the film. Where a little boy was murdered in the most horrible manner by his 16 year old sister.
This movie still in copyright ??? 74 years ????should be in the public domain!!!
I saw it many years ago on TV, I recorded it, I wore the VHS tape out, watching it so many times. 😁I found it on, Amazon UK or Play. Com, I can't remember which one now. 🤔
i agree
classic film-i love it-
2022 watching on TCM and I am afraid to look in a mirror now.
Got a twilight zone vibe from this movie great film.
Selfox Rebel I’m sure that room for one more sir bit was lifted by the Twilight Zone episode “22”
Oh, no, no, no. "The Twilight Zone" never scared the bejeebies out of us the way "Dead of Night" does.
Cheers Mick...Will do!!!
Gosh. I missed this on telly last night 😑
Oh Duw
this is now very scary
tis...
1:25 im pretty sure thats from a scary storyto tell in the dark book where the guy says there is room for onemore in a cab and later that cab crashes and then he see the same guy telling him on the elevator and he says there is room for one morethe guys says no thanks and the elevator crashes down
Yes, it was also turned into a Twilighth Zone episode, Twenty Two. The original is a short story by English author E.F. Benson: anilbalan.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/the-bus-conductor.pdf
For reasons understandable the government forbade the making of horror film genre in the UK.
After the war Ealing Studios chief Sir Michael Balcon wanted to make a film that used the talents of his best contract players scream writers and story men.
He utilises the talents of directors like Cavelcanti and Robert Hamer..
hola, quiero descargar esta pelicula y no encuentro link de descarga, alguien sabe?
Well I sure know now why this movie gave me nightmares for years as a child.Just googled it because I couldn't remember the title so just watched a clip.Definitely the same film.Mind you I must have only been about 6years old when I watched it with my dad!! Brilliant film though.100%
Yeah same as me!! Always remembered that doll!!! The best Supernatural horror film!!! Check out film devil doll 1964
Ta Mick. Will check out Devil Doll!
According to Leslie Halliwell, the master negative of this film was destroyed in a fire.
I'm hoping someone can answer this. Does a colorized version of this film exist? Janus Films had an 'Art of Film' segment included on a Hitchcock Criterion DVD, and it had a clip in the intro from Dead Of Night, but colorized. I can't find info about a colorized version anywhere.
Pellicola davvero stupenda, una pellicola dell orrore con un efficace sceneggiatura e con un finale riuscito, c'è un errore cioè mentre Pietro Cortland si guarda allo specchio che la sua futura moglie gli ha comprato, le strisce sulla sua cravatta vanno dal lato sinistro a quello destro. Un'inquadratura rovesciata mostra le strisce sulla sua cravatta che corrono nella stessa direzione; ovviamente, questa non è un'immagine speculare, quindi davvero stupenda e davvero stupenda per me come valutazione è 8,5.
hello i am french i love this movie
Fun fact: Horror films were banned from production in Britain during the war, so this is a rare one.
And btw, a woman giving his male fiancé a big ass mirror is kinda weird itself lol.
I have to find this film
Do it the best black and white horror by a mile
Amazing film!!
Renan C. S. Maia why helo max I’ve been expecting you that Hugo is nothing but trouble 👌
I believe this movie is the blueprint to other anthology movies such as asylum and tales from the crypt with Joan Collins
Great movie 🍿

Room For One More Honey.
It used to be you could watch this movie for free, on line. Somebody I guess decided it was popular enough they needed to charge a "membership fee" for it. I'm not doing that.
Good 4 U
You believe you’re entitled to everything free? It is possible to buy the disk and watch it over and over again.
Survival thriller 1945 dead of night movie survival thriller
Scarey as fuck
so scared
what?
Hmm guess everyone gets an idea from someplace. Twilight Zone “room for one more honey”.
And the story from this movie is taken from a 1902 short-story: anilbalan.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/the-bus-conductor.pdf
Just because a movie is old as hell and black and white does not mean it’s great or a masterpiece
And just because you can type . . . does not mean your comment is relevant.
Your right at what you say.and that can apply to anything and everything.but a lot of people ,me included just see a great film.not an old black and white film.
This movie is a masterpiece!!! I don't really know what you're trying to say
Have you ever watched a black and white movie, you bloody heretic.
You’re not wrong… but this still looks real good 😊
