Petrescu.

 

Citesc despre 'Blestemul altarului stacojiu' (Barbara S., Lee, Karloff), Sewell era un regizor exprimentat, acesta e penultimul lui film, sunt numai 34 de 'recenzii de utilizator', tendinta e de a-l considera onorabil, Karloff a continuat numai cu cele patru filme mexicane (ca 'Insula ...', caruia unii cinefili, in postari din 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, ii gasesc merite [1]; 'Alien Terror', unul din filmele mexicane despre care se scrie mai putin, are, totusi, admiratori: 'I found myself thoroughly enjoying this science fiction / horror hybrid which successfully mixes both genres by the crude methods of having two sub-plots which regularly clash. So far I've only seen two of the Karloff/Mexican quartet made shortly before the actor's death, but this beats DANCE OF DEATH hands down'). 'House of Evil' e cel mai desconsiderat.

Deasemeni, despre 'Robie', cu B. Davis.

NOTE:
[1] Kenneth Eagle Spirit, 2 February 2007-A good Karloff film



This thing deserves a better reputation. True, it has its down side. The photographic technique isn't the best. Quickly panning in and out, jerking the camera around, these are things I think directors do when they don't know what else to do. Lack of imagination excused by low budget. Aside from that it has lots of pluses. Karloff is good, as always. The rest of the cast play their parts very well. Two in particular come across perfectly and so help make this a good flick. Carlos (Charles) East does well as Wilhem, making the character very natural and hence believable. But, my opinion, the best player of them all? Yolanda Montes, billed as Tongolele, as Kalea. With her sex appeal and that budding "Bride of Frankenstien" hairdo shes dead on as the Voodoo priestess. And with sex appeal in mind, I noticed a pronounced current of underlying sexuality that flows nowhere. But things like that help pull 'em in when you show the promos. This isn't a bad movie. For a B flick its OK.

 

Altcuiva i-a placut piticul mexican.

Iar dansurile si dansatoarea le-au placut chiar si celor mai severi.

O apreciere cumpatata: 'I will just say that this turned out to be a bit better than I expected. Admittedly, the action was a bit bland but the overall story was decent enough and the dancing of Yolanda Montes (as the voodoo priestess "Kalea") certainly didn't hurt the film in any way. Now, that is not to say that this movie is great by any means. But I didn't think it was that bad either. That said, I give it an average rating'.
