Review of The Body Snatcher (1945) by Sgt. C — 17 Dec 2014
Karloffs finest hour, exuding charm and menace with every scene alongside an equally superb Henry Daniell who relishes a bigger and meatier role then normal. The versatile Robert Wise conjures up a dark and brooding tale that is rich in character study and underlying darkness.
The only down point is Lugosi's lack of screen time but what scenes he does have with Karloff are pure gold, if not slightly sad at the same time in retrospect.
