PLOT SYNOPSIS


Twenty years ago, a little accident with a guillotine trick left magician Duke Duquesne’s wife/on-stage assistant without a head… and their baby daughter, Cassie, without a mother. Now, The Great Duquesne (CESAR ROMERO) may have another trick up his sleeve. He dies, leaving Cassie (CONNIE STEVENS) a sizeable inheritance if she spends seven nights in his spooky mansion. With a fearless young reporter by her side, Cassie braves terrors that could be the work of evil spirits. Or are they illusions dreamed up by Cassie’s dear demented dad?

VIDEO – 4.5/5, AUDIO – 4.0/5


The black and white presentation of Two on a Guillotine, courtesy of a new transfer from the Warner Archive Collection, looks fantastic. Detail was sharp and well defined throughout and the natural film grain and noise has been retained with no apparent instances of noticeable dust marks, aliasing or other flaws.

The included DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 Mono track sounds rather good. Dialogue comes through with nice clarity and although it is a singular channel, there is some fine depth present.

OVERALL
