The terrifying talents of Newcastle's Norman Carter 'Tod' Slaughter - the first true icon of British horror cinema - are showcased in this long-overdue box set. Featuring the eight films which 'Europe's Horror Man' made in collaboration with British producer-director George King (Tomorrow We Live), this comprehensive collection also includes a number of rare shorts and newsreel items. Unlike his contemporaries, such as Boris Karloff and Charles Laughton, Tod Slaughter never left his native shores. Instead, he chose to make his mark in Britain by transferring his most sensational theatrical performances to the screen. Portraying every kind of cruel and cunning criminal - from petty thief to mass murderer - he became the first great villain of British horror, at a time before the Grand Guignol of Hammer Films began to take hold, without once donning monster make-up.
