What critics compared Theatre of Blood to
The chief influence clearly comes from Douglas Hickox's classic thriller Theatre of Blood (1973), in which the cinema's supreme exponent of Poe, Vincent Price, plays a sadistic old actor exacting revenge on the London theatre critics' circle by dispatching them one by one in gory death scenes from Shakespeare.
Or if you must, at least have as much fun with it as Theatre of Blood did.
We had murders based on Shakespeare plays in the great British horror Theatre of Blood .
