Anyone remember Vincent Price's movie "The Tingler"? (Spoiler alert)

A pretty cool movie, for its time, which had a small creature which inhabited everyone - it grew in size along your spine, depending upon just how scared you were - it went away once you screamed.

A cool aspect of this movie, is that it was the first movie that I am aware of that had LSD in it. (Vincent Price took it to bring on fear and paranoia and to get him good and frightened - he was a scientist who was investigating fear and its effects on the human body.) This movie was made in the early '60s.

I got in huge trouble for showing my daughter this one.
She loved it, but she had trouble sleeping for a week, and my wife stopped me from showing her any more scary movies for months.
(My daughter finally whined enough to her, that she relented and now I have someone to go to horror movies with!)
