Review of The Night of the Hunter (1955) by Paul O — 29 Aug 2012
For 1955, this film took religious stories to a new extreme. Having a pastor who was "tainted" by the devil and attempts to commit filicide is both creepy and demented. A classic that was crushed by critics when it first came out, this film has now grown comparisons to Shadow of a Doubt and is an important film in history.
