nick s This movie had a great energetic start and an intriguing introduction to the castle. Excellent acting, cinematography and directing made it a pleasure to watch. But boy, did the last 20 minutes tank. I was expecting this to be a lycanthropy story and the beau was infected. I wish it had gone that way but the ending unravelled in the most absurd way. It makes me wonder if there was a pay dispute near the end of shooting and the disgruntled director wreaked his revenge. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/12/24 Full Review Audience Member Very silly but effective B-movie chiller, indifferently acted but wonderfully designed (by director William Cameron Menzies) and originally shot in 3D. The setting is a vast castle and maze in remote fog-bound Scotland, where a mystery resides and is being protected by American baronet - and King of the 50s Stereoscopic Creature Feature - Richard Carlson. The big reveal at the end is laugh-out-loud hilarious and worth waiting for, and Cameron Menzies conjures a great deal from shadows and candle-light. Very enjoyable. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review harri k Didn't see that coming. Weird and somewhat ridiculous but can't deny the strong entertainment value. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member 76% "We'll make him see a doctor, if he wants to or not."-Kitty Murray (Veronica Hurst) All I'm saying is, I would have frog-stomped that manphibian, and had the biggest set of legs ever. "I wouldn't go in there."-Simon (Owen McGiveney) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member An intriguing and effective little horror movie that has the atmosphere of an early Universal gothic horror and story that could have been written by H.P Lovecraft. Effects let it down slightly; after all the suspense the full reveal of Richard Carlson's dark secret in the maze could seem a little ludicrous. The cast are good, Carlson his usual stoical self, but Veronica Hurst shines. Willaim Cameron Menzies was involved in Invaders from Mars the same year, a different movie, but one that shares a magical quality. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A movie that started off great & kept you in suspense wanting to find out what the secret was that Gerald & his servants were trying to hide.When you do find out what it was they're trying to hide be prepared to be shocked & not in a good way.You'll probably either laugh or be like that's it!?
