Review of The Skull (1965) by Tony M — 15 Oct 2013
The Skull's tag-line reads, "When the skull strikes, you'll scream!" That generic phrase alone should serve as a warning of the boredom to come. The film is about a possessed skull with supernatural powers and unexplained evil motives. Although it stars the legendary Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, it has very little dialogue and isn't compelling nor even somewhat believable. It's a difficult watch but there are some very well done first-person camera shots that will remind you of John Carpenter's Halloween.
2/5.
