Wow, how many titles can one film have?



Peopletoys
The Horrible House at the Top of the Hill
Devil Times Five



"I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus."
"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."

The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue/Let Sleeping Corpses Lie etc. apparently has about sixteen alternative titles! Why does this only seem to happen with horror movies?

reply

It was released as "Little Devils" in my country.

I like Devil Times Five the best out of those titles. The Horrible House at the Top of the Hill sounds like a children's book, and Peopletoys makes it sound like a killer doll movie.

reply

You do know that the alternative title "Devil Times Five" only came about because of the popularity of the film "The Omen" and the murderous nature of Damien Thorn, don't you?

"Here you go, a mirror for your birthday!"
"You do know I'm blind, don't you?"

Horrible House on the Hill, actually.
That was the title on first release in LA in 1974, complete with a huge ad in the Times screeching, "CLOSE YOUR EYES WHEN SUSAN STEPS INTO THE TUB!!"
