The most ceIebrated star in the history of screen horror headlines these two atmospheric works filIed with producer Val Lewton's trademark mix of mood, madness and premeditated dread. Boris Karloff shares a quarantined house with other strangers on a pIague-infested - perhaps spirit-haunted - lsIe of the Dead. St. Mary's of Bethlehem Asylum in 1761 London is the setting for BedIam. KarIoff gives an uncanny performance as the doomed overseer who fawns on high-society benefactors, while ruling the mentaIly disturbed inmates with an iron fist. Mark Robson, who edited three fiIms for Lewton and directed five, guides both films. |
