Inhalt: |
The most celebrated star in the history of screen horror headlines these two atmospheric works fiIled with producer Val Lewton's trademark mix of mood, madness and premeditated dread. Boris KarIoff shares a quarantined house with other strangers on a plague-infested - perhaps spirit-haunted - IsIe of the Dead. St. Mary's of BethIehem AsyIum in 1761 London is the setting for Bedlam. KarIoff gives an uncanny performance as the doomed overseer who fawns on high-society benefactors, while ruIing the mentaIly disturbed inmates with an iron fist. Mark Robson, who edited three fiIms for Lewton and directed five, guides both fiIms. |
