Synopsis
The Monster Club (1981) is a British horror anthology from Roy Ward Baker that you can watch online on iFILM. A vampire bites a horror novelist on a dark street, then — as a thank-you — brings him along to a members-only club for the undead.
Inside, where ghouls and werewolves crowd the dance floor, the vampire Erasmus entertains his guest with three tales. One follows a money-hungry human-ghoul hybrid; another traps an outsider in a whole village of bloodsuckers; the last drops a horror director into a town run entirely by monsters. Between stories, rock and pop bands take the stage. Vincent Price and John Carradine hold court at the head table, with Donald Pleasence as a vampire hunter.
This is a late wave to the era of Amicus and Hammer, played with a wink — the makeup is deliberately goofy and the musical numbers turn the whole thing into a part-time monster musical. Don't come for real scares; come for cosy camp and three genre legends sharing one screen. Stream The Monster Club (1981) online on iFILM.
