Review of Isle of the Dead (1945) by Mara B — 29 Oct 2010
Im finding as I watch more & more Karloff either they're really good or not too smoking hot. Isle of the Dead falls into that latter. Karloff is always good, a highlight & the main reason to tune in but unfortunately it's a little on the boring side.
I know this was made in the 40s & you should be a little forgiving but when a movie is like 70s minutes & feels close to 2 hours something is wrong. Not one of RKO's shining moments & basically for Karloff completest.
Im watching his stuff whenever it's on TMC but you should check out something like Corridors of Blood instead.
