Hillbillys In A Haunted House (1967)

Two country and western singers (Ferlin Husky, Joi Lansing) and their manager (Don Bowman) are en route to Nashville but become tired and stop to rest in an old abandoned mansion. Little do they know, but the basement of the old house is headquarters for the evil Madame Wong (Linda Ho) and her entourage of spies. Directed by Jean Yarbrough (SHE WOLF OF LONDON). I'm a sucker for haunted house comedies like THE CAT AND THE CANARY and GHOST BREAKERS. But this one is lame! For one thing it's a haunted house country & western musical comedy. But the songs aren't organic, the movie just stops dead in its tracks and someone sings a C&W song. The film ends with a 15 minute C&W jamboree. The whole thing comes off as amateur night. Somehow some movie veterans like Basil Rathbone, John Carradine and Lon Chaney Jr. were roped into this. With Merle Haggard, Molly Bee and Richard Webb.
