Being a William Castle fan, I was disappointed by his last work which is more like a made-for-TV film.
Although I liked Marceau's talent in miming, I should say the only thing that I truly enjoyed was seeing William Castle for a few moments in the role of a shop keeper.
Apart from that, any thing else seemed unsatisfactory. The film has a very slow pacing which will make most of the viewers bored. The editing is poorly done and film could have been at least 40 minutes shorter. In addition that what characters do (and even their deaths!) seems extremely stupid and perhaps the reason is that the writer couldn't find another way to advance the story.
But still I confess there were moments of fun which may be especially interesting for children.
