Viewing Notes

Third movie at The Massacre and another in 16mm! Viewed this a year ago after reading a wonderful article about the film and Peter Bogdanovich at The Dissolve. Karloff is so terrific here. Very cool to see on the big screen with a near capacity audience. Having loud cheers for Karloff in the final scene is why going to these events is the best.

Film remains a frightening story that feels just as relevant today as it did in 1968.
