Review of Doctor X (1932) by Citizen P — 22 Oct 2009
Brilliantly directed by Curtiz, Doctor X is easily one of the most horrific films of the early 30s. True, some of the ideas are a bit sketchy but the moody visuals captured perfectly in two-strip technicolor are the stuff of nightmares.
Nowhere is this more true than in the "synthetic flesh" climax. As for the cast, Tracy is a likeable hero, Wray is as beautiful as ever and Atwill steals the show with his sly delivery.
