Viewing Notes

Third movie in our Dark Castle marathon. Had to buy the Collector’s Edition from Scream Factory for this one. No regrets as this is a fun flick. I had forgotten nearly all of except for the very end so I’m counting it for my 31 Days of Horror project.

Such a cast of its time and very amusing to see Geoffrey Rush do his best sardonic Vincent Price. Famke Janssen is hilariously over the top in her portrayal of his wife. Chris Kattan as comic relief goes a long way to making this more entertaining.

Since I have the sequel now I may try to squeeze that into my final week of October viewing.
