Review of The Body Snatcher (1945) by John A — 02 Oct 2009
Another excellent and atmospheric film from producer Val Lewton. The direction of Wise is controlled and makes wonderful use of light and shadow. Karloff is appropriately creepy as the mysterious cabman, the presence of the singing girl contributes both sadness and tension to the overall mood, and the ending is extremely well-executed.
