Review of The Prisoner of Shark Island (1936) by Ben G — 23 Jul 2009
A barely watchable film and its blatant racism makes it all the more difficult to appreciate. Worse than all, the Dr Mudd is presented as some sort of hero whereas his heroic deed was to have two shots fired at a ship.
The Kafkaesque part of the story is pleasant nonetheless but over all the script's too poor for the film to be intresting.
