Goes eye-popping-Technicolor-bonanza in Theatricality with a capitol T. But it's chilling. Especially the whipping-scenes. Christopher Lee owns this film (as every film he's in).

Gorgeous music, sets, and use of color, the film has some great atmosphere. The plot itself is kind of silly, though, and the S & M sexual tension is pretty laughable. Also, I can deal with the fact that this is an Italian film and thus dubbed, but not using Lee's voice? Lame.

This is why Mario Bava is a master. An intriguing ghost story story and a great twist of an ending, this is a well crafted flim.
