Corbett in his only Carry On 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, and follows a plot similar to that of the 1953 film House of Wax. The film, set in Edwardian London, begins with a young couple courting in the woods. Doris Mann is insistent that there is a peeping tom watching them from the bushes. Her boyfriend, Albert Potter , while grumbling that he's been dating her for a year and there's been nothing worth watching thus far, reluctantly leaves to scout the area, leaving Doris on her own. Suddenly, a hideous creature appears from behind a tree and abducts Doris.
