The difference between 1.-THE
Tingler" and so many other
imbecilic movies is that the
one which opened at Loew's
Capitol yesterday is deliberately
so.
This is a science-horror Aim,
virtually choking on its own
hokum, but offered in a spirit
of what Producer William
Castle hopes will be riotous
fun. 1t undoubtedly was their
agreement with this idea that
inspired some rather pretigious
performers to lend their pro-
fessional presences to the pic
ture.
Otherwise, except possibly
for the lure Of Mr.. Castles
money, it is hard to figure
Vincent Price. Judith Evelyn.
and Philip Coolidge playing
principals in such cinema nom
sense.
An enthusiastically cooper
alive audience in fine scream
ing form - which may have
missed an important exercise
in algebra-was present for the
first showing of THE Tingler"
yesterday. Its outstan ding
member was a pretty blond
hired to faint, at the films
climax and to be carried out on
a stretcher with the house
lights shining brightly and the
film showing momentarily sus-
pended.
AS a showmanship gimmick,
the major flaw in the bonds
performance was that she was
smiling in complete disbelief
that she really could have
tainted.
The other actors in 1.-THE
Tingler," the ones on the
screen, are much more maca-
brely dead-panned about their
work. Price, for one, as a doc
tor studying the effects of fear
and coming up with the dis
covery that it is a lizard that
rises out of the human spine in
moments of supreme terror.
The spine that produces this
revelation is the one that be-
longs to Miss Evelyn who must
sometimes have wondered what
an actress of her stature was
doing in 1.-THE Tingler." Mr..
Coolidge whose previous work
has also been on a much high
er level of art, plays Miss
Evelyn's husband, a pasty,
sinister type whom Dear Abby
would certainly discourage as
mate material.

1T is a time-proved dramatic
device for picturing the horror
of war to bring 1t down to the
nionstrous duty of one man to
kill another in face to face en-
counter.
The device is used again, and
most effectively, in "Orders to
Kill" the British film which
opens today at the ontario
theater.
This is basically a ease taken
from Allied intelligence files
in World War II, specifically
Americas OSS book, and the
climbing terror of it is tersely
and excitingly played by a
sound cast. Heading this group
are Paul Massey, a young
Canadian, Eddie Albert and
Irene Worth.
Orders to Kill" was the
British entry in the Cannes
film festival Of 1858. Among
the two dozen films in that
competition, it ran a close third
to Russia's 1.-THE Cranes Are
Flying" and Jacques Tati's
original ironic comedy. my
Uncle" Among jurors and
Cannes sophisticated audiences,
there were those who thought
It at least the equal Of either
Of the others.
Central in the screen play are
o young American soldier and
q mild, elderly Frenchman en-
gagged in counter Intelligence.
There is evidence to indicate
that the latter is one more of
those spies who is playing the
game two ways. On this sus-
picion, the young American is
assigned the unconscionable
duty Of acting as the meek old
mans judge and, if he finds the
latter guilty, to play his exc
eutioner.
The details of this ordeal,
reaching out to include a num-
Der of other humans on the
landscape of occupied Paris, are
directed and played with an
acute perception, the former
job by Anthony Asquith.
Their dramatic point is the
torment of conscience imposed
