Sinopsis:

Extras:

This limited collector's edition comprises:

• The Man in Black and supporting material on two discs in a stylish digipak and rigid box: one UHD and one Blu-ray, with the content duplicated across both formats.
• English, French, Italian, Spanish and German subtitles on each version of the film.

The discs feature:

• New commentary with writers Lizbeth Myles and Paul Cornell, creators of the widely acclaimed Hammer House of Podcast.
• New commentary with Will Fowler, writer and co-creator of the bfi’s ongoing Flipside series, and film and media historian Melanie Williams.
• Men in Black: Award-winning authors Martin Edwards and Andrew Taylor discuss John Dickson Carr (“Master of the Locked Room Mystery”) and his contemporaries at the Detection Club – the long-running club for mystery writers, first created in 1930.
• Panic Stations: Richard Hand, academic and writer of Listen in Terror, examines the rise of “horror radio” in the 1930s and ‘40s and the conditions that made Appointment with Fear such a hit with wartime and post-war British audiences.
• This is Your Storyteller: Author, actor and film historian Jonathan Rigby and Vic Pratt, writer and co-creator of the bfi’s ongoing Flipside series, discuss the life and career of Valentine Dyall, known forever to posterity as The Man in Black.
• Francis Searle Interview: Interviewed in 1988 for the British Entertainment History Project, this extract from writer/director Francis Searle’s career-long interview covers his time at Hammer.
• Suspense: three original wartime US radio shows featuring John Dickson Carr's scripts, as introduced by The Man in Black.
• Yoga and You: this Hammer archive rarity is a factual, self-help support film that thankfully didn’t demonstrate how this then-esoteric practice could be used in the furtherance of murder. 
• A gallery of stills and publicity material alongside tracks from Frank Spencer’s score.
