Hillbillys in a Haunted House (1967)

Woolner Brothers Pictures
Directed by Jean Yarbrough
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, VCI Entertainment)

Ferlin Husky returns from Las Vegas to bring his redneck country singers to Nashville for a jamboree. Along the way, they stop at a deserted mansion for a night. Supposedly haunted, its really got a spy ring in the basement consisting of washed-up horror icons Basil Rathbone, John Carradine, Lon Chaney Jr and a man in a gorilla suit. There are frequent breaks for performances by country stars like Merle Haggard and Sonny James, which are hilariously dated and awful.
