It was my day for serial killer woman movie, after just having seen "a Candle for the Devil" directed by Eugenio Martin.
"Daughter of Darkness" is a swell B movie about a young serial killer woman in english countryside. Lot of creativity : night expressionnist photography, virtuoso travellings, the killer girl playing organ, creepy shots of dog, ... so many details are seldom seen in usual murder movies in the 40-50's. It can easily be compared to "Cat People". Siobhan McKenna, who plays the devil girl, isn't as pretty as Simone Simon, but she's still really creepy. And for these reasons and many more, Lance Comfort is much better than Ed Wood, for sure.
