Add a CommentA good movie (and sequel) which shows the way the craft of film making has changed over the years. If you compare this one to the the remake you'll see big differences.
I've seen this before, but needed to be reminded of its construction, as it came-up during the commentary of "The Wolf Man" as being a parallel tale of person to animal. Which it is. A very oddly told story of Freudian analysis, with an undercurrent of disturbing spirituality. Good stuff, though.
Classic Val Lewton. A must-see for film buffs.
