This film is not for the crowds that want blood, gore and action. Till Death is a film for those that understand the pain of loosing someone you are in-love with. It's a slow film, very little action and a good story. This film has a feeling of madness and claustrophobia when widower Paul Ryan accidentally gets locked into the tomb of his recently deceased wife Anne. Her memory and his guilt takes focus in a haunting but heartwarming horror story.

It's a low budget film. B-film doe not mean Bad Film, it's just a Budget Film... a movie with little cash to work with. The filmmakers of Till Death did a wonderful job on the film with little money.

For those that like the older and subtle horror stories this is a film you might enjoy. It's worth watching.

6.5/10

First, it is a movie made in the 70's, so it does lack the action and visuals that modern movies have. Therefore, younger viewers may not like it at all. For older viewers: if you have ever lost a loved one or experienced thoughts of losing a loved one, then this movie will have a profound impact on you. Yes, it is campy, slightly over-acted, and lacking of high-tech visuals, but the theme is timeless, and the music will be remembered. If released on DVD, I can almost guarantee that sales will amaze the skeptics.

The essential story here could be used for a very affecting -- if rather short -- film, playing upon claustrophobia, necrophobia, our desires for undying love, and so forth.

Unfortunately, this film seems to have been shot quickly, with mere workaday direction, cinematography, sound, and acting, despite the fact that most of the participants did substantially better work at other points in their careers.

It's interesting to note that this film is connected to the infamous -They Saved Hitler's Brain- by way both of Walter Stocker and of one of the actors (Marshall Reed).

very strange and morbid film. not many have ever seen it, even big time horror movie buffs. i saw it on a local t.v years ago and taped it. the storyline is something right out of 'night gallery'. good weird visuals, even if the film drags a bit! the acting is typical b movie type! but it doesn't take away much from a film born on b movie trappings. the opening scene still rates best for me. though the mausoleum 'showdown' isa close second. spooky, creepy and a good watch. a must see for old school horror fans! its got the crypt, the dead people, and all else you need for a low budget horror film. see it if you can find it! keep an eye out on local late night television stations. maybe it'll turn up on a $1 DVD at some point!!!
