Storyline

- TriviaAlthough the publicity for this movie made much of the fact that the three greatest horror stars of the day, Vincent Price, Sir Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing were all in it, the three actors have in fact only small roles in this movie, despite star billing. Cushing's role is confined to one scene, without the other two, and the Price and Lee characters have a very brief scene together only at the end of the movie. The combined footage for all three actors only comes to about one-fifth of the total running time.
- GoofsWhen Keith escapes from the police, after he has severed off his own hand, he jumps over a short fence/style and rolls on the grass on his landing. Using pause you can see his real hand come out of his cuff just as where his stump should be

- Alternate versionsBritish prints of SCREAM AND SCREAM AGAIN have small differences than AIP's American Theatrical cut, with the American version removing Bellaver clumsily throwing a stone at the speedy cliff-climbing super-human Keith, and a bottle-swigging old drunk peeping at Keith and Sylvia fooling around in the convertible. The final shot of the British print is also different, with the credits scrolling over a long shot of Dr. Browning's lab heard over soundtrack music, rather than on the American print which has the credits being presented over a black screen with The Amen Corner's "Scream and Scream Again" playing. One thing omitted from the American version is a brief but significant dialogue exchange between Vincent Price and Christopher Lee: "But what of the dream?" asks Price. "There is only nightmare" replies Lee).

Featured review
Cryptic, disjointed horror-thriller triptych
A runner keeps waking up in a hospital bed to a new horror, an unnatural serial killer with an appetite for blood murders women in London, and apparatchik in an unnamed fascist/communist state covers up research into übermensch with a deadly 'Vulcan neck pinch' - three parallel stories that are (vaguely) tied together in the final reel. Also in triplicate, iconic horror stars Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Vincent Price, who unfortunately do not add much to the film beyond marquee-value (Cushing is in little more than an extended cameo). Much of the film is a lengthy car/foot chase as the strangely unarmed (even by British standards) police pursue the vampiric serial-killer. The film has some good moments (the hospital-bed scenes, which are all I remembered from a decades-past viewing, are a nosocomephobic's nightmare), but the intriguing tripartite build-up is let down by a flat and unsatisfying ending. Not great but different and watchable for fans of 'body-horror'.
