The Terror (1963)

American independent horror film.

A French Army officer, Lieutenant Duvalier, has been separated from his unit and receives help from a mysterious woman. He follows her to the castle of Baron Von Lepp only to find that she is the Baron’s wife who died 20 years ago.

Roger Corman shot the bulk of the film in four days, but the second-unit work was filmed over a nine month period by five directors, Francis Ford Coppola, Dennis Jakob, Monte Hellman, Jack Nicholson, and Jack Hill.

The original theatrical poster warned potential audiences, “No one will be admitted while the coffin is being opened!”

Sandra Knight, who was married to Jack Nicholson at the time, was pregnant while filming with daughter Jennifer Nicholson.

The Terror was Jack Nicholson’s and Roger Corman’s third film together, and Boris Karloff’s and Jack Nicholson’s second film together.
