Black Sunday (1960)
6/10
Scared the hell out of me as a kid...
27 November 2000
but it doesn't hold up as an adult. It looks fantastic and has many eerie scenes but I was never really scared. The dubbing is obvious (and hurts) and the story moves very slowly (even at 82 minutes). As for the acting--Steele varies. She's very beautiful and is good at portraying evil. She seems uncomfortable and stiff portraying the good girl. John Richardson is tall, handsome and good as the hero...the other Italian actors are good also. Also the music score doesn't work at all. Half the time the music doesn't seem to match the images! For horror completists or Bava fans only.
