Cheesy at times yet creepy at others. Overall I really liked it. This was not a typical vampire movie as there were no wooden stakes, no garlic, and no fangs. I liked that about it. Very well-written and directed as well. The black and white cinematography looked great, utilizing shadows and light to make a great gothic atmosphere.

A minor work by Bava, but better than many films of the genre.

A great intro and perfect casting in Barbara Steele. The film has some really nice photography and a few interesting ideas and techniques. Unfortunately for a 86 minute movie it manages to have pacing problems as well as awful dubbing on some of the secondary characters.

She's cute and she's a witch and they kill her at the beginning in spectacular fashion and then she comes back and plays two roles and did I mention she's beautiful. She is.

Although undeniably well-shaped, the film is incredibly stiff. Despite not being engaging, it taste.

Atmospheric but ultimately empty italian horror flick. Highly influential, which only means that it's worth watching but not necesarilly that it's any good.

The sets are fantastic, and there are some wonderful shots. But after the striking first part, the film gradually gets slower and less interesting, and the final act is rather anticlimactic.

This is pretty impressive for a debut, a first-rate gothic horror film. The mood is appropriately creepy, the music is very good, the cinematography quite thoughtful and evocative. It's a little cheesy, but horror and cheese often go together well.

Ish. Some atmospheric photography, but this may mark the beginning of sick modern horror and the end of horror classicism. Not Freder's cup of fur at all.

The pic that put graveyard beauty Steele -- cast here as a reanimated witch -- on the horror-movie map also represents one of gothic great Bava's most atmospheric excursions.
