Review of Isle of the Dead (1945) by Robert I — 30 Mar 2012
We all have the fear of being buried alive, and one of the characters here experiences that, eventually leading to her madness. The idea is horrible enough. It's another extraordinary and entertaining Val Lewton-produced film, probably greater than I Walked With a Zombie and The Leopard Man.
The guy must have good taste for horror films. Boris Karloff as a stubborn general is at his best and campiest.
