Diagonaldi Very well executed

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

manchester_england2004 Most fans of the CARRY ON films choose either CLEO or UP THE KHYBER as their favourite. I'm not really a fan of either of those entries, tending to prefer mostly the later films such as ABROAD, BEHIND and AT YOUR CONVENIENCE. But CARRY ON SCREAMING is the best one by far in my opinion.No one expects much of a plot when watching a CARRY ON film but here goes - a number of young girls who frequent a park with their boyfriends disappear and nearby a mad scientist and his sister are making mannequins and selling them to clothing shops as models for the shop window. Could there be a connection? You bet there is. But watch the film as I don't want to spoil what happens, suffice to say that on this flimsy plot, a great many funny scenes and set-pieces emerge and the result is simply hilarious.The film is regarded as a spoof of Hammer horror films but at times feels more like it's poking fun at old dark house films, with its inclusion of the creepy butler for example, played to perfection by the late, great Bernard Bresslaw.Harry H Corbett is the star of the film and let's be honest and say this is his CARRY ON film. For the producers, it was just an excuse to get him playing his famous character, Harold Steptoe, on the big screen. But Corbett really relishes every minute of every scene he's in, his character going through quite a few hilarious escapades.Corbett's comic timing, as is that of his co-stars, is quite simply spot on, and it's delightful - truly delightful in fact - to watch these great actors do their craft. Kenneth Williams, Jim Dale, Peter Butterworth and many others, are all at the top of their game here as the innuendos and witty puns are rolled off their tongues in this well-paced laugh riot. There's something very beautiful about it all, but I can't really find the right words to describe it. It's all very British that's for sure.The song that plays over the opening credits is delightfully catchy and part of the charm of this wonderful film.SCREAMING was the first CARRY ON film I saw around 1995 and it remains the best by far in my opinion. The series has a whole is immensely enjoyable and re-runs of the many films will continue for a long time to come I'm sure since these films may age but their fun factor is timeless.

edavidathome Definitely one of the best, although not in the class of Kyber. Harry H. Corbett fits well into the run of things and the cast altogether were very good. Kenneth Williams seems to be enjoying himself and Miss Fielding is a delight. The back drop to the film is well done as well.Bung, bung, bung.......what a fitting name!

TheLittleSongbird Carry on Screaming is a truly great film- I am not sure whether it is a cult classic though- but it is easily one of the better Carry On Movies, perhaps even THE best. The film is hilarious, the ending particularly had me in stitches, with a good plot and wonderful one liners, "Frying Tonight" is up there with "Infamy Infamy they've all got it in for me" and "it's all cock and no pea" as the funniest one liner not only in a Carry on but ever.The performances were wonderful, and Harry H.Corbett's superb lead performance cleared away all the fears of Sidney James being sorely missed, though I will say, James I have always found one of the best Carry on regulars. There is great support from Charles Hawtry, Jim Dale and Joan Sims, but the picture belongs to Kenneth Williams as Dr Watt, just priceless. Overall, a classic Carry On, maybe not a cult classic, but a hilarious film all the same. 9/10 Bethany Cox

milliefan To correct an earlier comment on this site, the glorious Fenella Fielding is NO relation to Marty Feldman, and has stated many times how she is tired of this untruth being repeated. Her real name is Fenella Feldman but she is not related to Marty in any way. Back to Carry on Screaming, the very best of the Carry On films - if you have never seen it, buy the DVD today. The performances are top notch, especially those of Kenneth Williams and Fenella Fielding as the villainous brother/sister act, and Harry H. Corbett as the befuddled police sergeant. It is curious that Peter Butterworth, who plays a major role, and Bernard Bresslaw, as the Lurch-type butler, receive minor billing and are not mentioned on the poster for the film. Anyway - enjoy!
