Jul 4 Very good mystery movie. Nice cinematography and have to speak their lines clearly instead of mumbling like they do nowadays. See more Blobbo X 11/13/2024 Director was ahead his time. Pay attention camera work! See more nick s 02/24/2024 The acting was rather stagey, which sucked the gravitas out of the movie. The lead actor seemed to think it was a radio show. The dialogue was also below par, with a lot of exposition for the audience and choppy progression of plot. Some nice camera work in places. The score was a bit of a cacophony in the action sequences. Overall not much story and few thrills in this flick. See more 05/19/2015 A paint by numbers Universal monster movie with actors and writers made of wood. Anything cool here can be seen at much better degrees in more famous monster movies of this time period, like, I don't know, THE WOLF MAN? See more 08/22/2014 See it more for the visual thrills than for the mystery, but see it. See more 10/03/2012 great atmospheric horror with a universal feel although a 20th century fox release. recognise the butler? no shit sherlock. See more Read all reviews
