One of the best horror movies ever made. Although inferior in technique by today's standards, it merits the genre of that period. (1950's)-the Cold War, McCarthyism and so forth. Made in black and white, it gives that atmospheric 'feel' to the film that is sadly missing in a lot of films in general made today. Well worth a look and worth its value in purchase. A collectors item!

This was a Black and White Film released in 1957. The tale is gripping and very atmospheric. Its well acted with good lead characters and a superb occultist played by Nial MacGinnis. The script is superb and for the year has to go down as a Cinema Classic well worth seeing.

The necessity for lurid titles to sell films in the 1950s - 1970s may mean excellent films such as this are overlooked as just another horror trash B-movie. This film however is an excellent gothic horror/thriller based on "Casting the Runes" by ghost story supremo M.R.James. Don't be put off by the corny humourous situation on the plane early on, the story becomes more serious and suspenseful as it builds. This is an absolute classic, watch it all through and enjoy.

This is fans for classic old horror films that are intelligent in their story line. For the period that this film was made in the special effects are not bad,I would actually like to see this on the big screen as the monster of the piece would be impressive to say the least. If you like blood and gore then this is not for you,but if you prefer more thoughtful stuff you'll love it.
