Quick-bite reviews: The Tingler (1959) dir. William Castle

When happy-go-lucky coroner/pathologist/mad scientist doctor Warren Chapin finds cracked vertebrae during an execution postmortem, it's obvious to him that the corpse was a victim not just of the state but of literal spine-tingling terror: an inborn human spine parasite dubbed 'the tingler' that responds to fear with vice-like grip on its host. The tingler looks like a cross between a dachshund, a garbage bag, and a velvet worm, makes 1950s domestic problems worse, and is rendered harmless by the sound of screams.

This movie is better known for its schlocky gimmicks than any filmmaking prowess; director Castle stepping in to explain that perceptive viewers will feel the tingler in the theater with them and should scream to ward it off, with a series of interaction points to follow. You might remember a tumblr post making the rounds that claimed audiences were given electric shocks to simulate a tingler attack, but the truth of select seats gently vibrating is much funnier, as more than half of the film's budget was spent on selling theaters sets of repurposed WWII aircraft cooling motors. Because The Tingler is discussed more as a cultural object than a watchable movie I didn't expect the plot to have any substance, but I actually got a huge kick out of it. The melodrama's fun, the dialogue is snappy, Dr. Warren might now be one of my favorite Vincent Price performances ever, and Judith Evelyn is excellent both as an actress and for her part in a genuinely cool effects sequence. I also love the tingler lore?? It's clear just how much thought and care went into making their monster without over-explaining it, and I won't spoil the way it moves or the way it SOUNDS. Most importantly, The Tingler sets itself apart in B-moviedom with one of the funniest plot points in any horror media I've seen. Warren wants to experience the tingler but is sadly just too brave for it; how ever will he get scared in a controlled and quantifiable way?...

Buy a ticket? Sure, it's fun! Though I think best enjoyed if you've got someone on the couch with you to tingle. oooo

( pillow ) sender lays their head on receiver’s chest (randy & cici~)

The Tingler played on the tv, though Cici would be lying if she said it had her full attention, despite that it was Vincent Price. Besides, she'd seen it a few times anyways. So she laid there, absentmindedly playing with Randy's hand in hers while Dr. Warren Chapin struggled to pull the parasite off his arm on the screen.

A smile spread across her lips when Randy moved, laying on top of her instead of simply being beside her, his head on her chest. She let go of his hand to wrap her arms around him. She kissed the top of his head then let her eyes close, her fingers running lightly through his hair.

Underrated '50s monster, more like something out of the '80s.
