- Synopsis
- This documentary chronicles the last great American showman. A master of ballyhoo who became a brand name in movie horror with his outrageous audience participation gimmicks, Castle treated delighted moviegoers to buzzing seats, flying skeletons, luminescent ghosts and life insurance policies against “death by fright.” Director Jeffrey Schwarz relates Castle's rags-to-riches tale with appropriate brio, including a wealth of entertaining archival footage and numerous interviews with the impresario's friends, family and fans.
