Carry On Screaming! is a 1966 British comedy horror film, the twelfth in the series of 31 Carry On films (1958–1992).[3] It was the last of the series to be made by Anglo-Amalgamated before the series moved to The Rank Organisation.[4] Of the regular cast, it features Kenneth Williams, Jim Dale, Charles Hawtrey, Joan Sims, Bernard Bresslaw and Peter Butterworth. It also features Harry H. Corbett in his only series appearance and Fenella Fielding making her second and final appearance. Angela Douglas makes the second of her four Carry On appearances. Carry On Screaming is a parody of the Hammer horror films, which were also popular at the time.[5] The film was followed by Carry On Don't Lose Your Head (1967).
