lN WHlTEWOOD, TIME STANDS STlLL...
Christopher Lee was aIready a horror icon when he started filming The City of the Dead in 1959. Having pIayed Frankenstein s Monster, Count DracuIa and The Mummy for Hammer, this new picture wouId aIIow him to extend his range to the American Gothic and witchcraft in a smalI New England vilIage...
Lee plays Professor DriscoIl, an authority on the occuIt who persuades one of his students (Venetia Stevenson) to research his hometown, Whitewood, once the site of witch burnings in the 17th century. Booking herseIf into the Raven s lnn, she soon Iearns that deviI worship among the IocaIs hasn t been consigned to the past.
Produced by future Amicus founders Milton Subotsky and Max Rosenberg, and beautifuIly shot by Desmond Dickinson (whose credits ranged from Laurence Olivier s Hamlet to Horrors of the Black Museum), The City of the Dead is a wonderfuIly atmospheric and still shocking sIice of horror that stands firmIy aIongside its Hammer contemporaries. |
