Look out for the Tingler!
Vincent Price stars as an obsessed doctor who discovers that fear manifests itself as a parasitic creature, which grows on the spinal cords of terrified people. If they scream, the Tingler can be destroyed. If they don't, it will sever the spinal column and kill them. He successfully isolates and removes the Tingler from a deaf mute (Judith Evelyn) who has been scared to death by her devious husband. Once captured, the Tingler escapes and runs amok in a crowded movie theater. Terror is loose, but can it be stopped?
The Tingler is legendary horror director William Castle's magnum opus. After the success of House On Haunted Hill, Castle devised a new gimmick called "Percepto." Participating theaters would wire seats so that random moviegoers would get a tangible electric shock during climactic moments in the film. Another novelty used to maximum effect is the short color sequence depicting blood pouring from a faucet and filling a bathtub. Castle went on to direct more cult classics like Homicidal and 13 Ghosts and later produced the mainstream hit Rosemary's Baby.

I am so glad we received a warning from Director Castle

[@yale15186]

Horrified me as a child, in the theatre that was rigged up with PERCEPTO...all in the show were actually shocked in our seats electrically, when the tingler appeared...any many more theatrical effects! Was quite an event to see on screen in its day!

[@sfoellmi]

All it was was a surplus motor under the seat....Oh I bet it was fun to see who gets to plug THAT motor in!!!

[@Pkatherstudio]

I worked with the man who wired the theatres. All sorts of ghost effects for others. Boy, he had some stories!

My mother took me to see it I was 7 years old. It scared me so much ,that I got sick and had to go to the doctor's. Scariest movie I ever saw....

[@skykitchen867]

Scared the crap out of me!! Theater was crowded and it was so much fun seeing mom spring out of her chair, her popcorn flying when the current hit her chair. When Vincent Price yelled "scream" the theater turned all the lights off inside, even the exit signs. It was the most scariest thing ever.

William Castle is my favorite director of all time because of how he mad movies fun to watch and the gimicks were legendary

[@davidwise3426]

This movie would air on TV and even the commercials scared me.
