It! / Shuttered Room, The

In It,, a London museum's eerie Golem statue is awake and ready to do its master's bidding. Roddy McDowall (Planet of the Apes) portrays a museum assistant -- and a mama's boy living with dear ol' mum's corpse -- who wills the monster to destroy his rivals. Can the military's nuclear might stop this madman and his power binge? See It! in full, terrifying action. Don't go there, Dunwich Islanders say. Above all, don't enter The Shuttered Room. Gig Young and Carol Lynley, eager to explore the long-vacant New England millhouse they inherited, disregard the warnings of the creepy locals. And that plunges them into the mystery and madness of a shocker based on a story cowritten by H.P. Lovecraft and August Derleth.
