Corman and his uncredited team of co-directors (among them both Francis Ford Coppola and Jack Nicholson) came up with one of Corman’s (relatively) strongest movies here, pitting Nicholson and Boris Karloff against one another over the affections of Sandra Knight. Don’t procure me dismal, in many ways this movie is as bad as anything Corman ever churned out, but at least it’s jam-packed with atmosphere and scenery-chewing. Filmed unprejudiced after Corman finished The Raven (he had five free days that had been budgeted for that one), Corman and his essential cast and crew knocked this one out, in Hollywood terms, overnight.
The region concerns one Andre Duvalier (Nicholson), separated from his regiment, who seeks shelter in a limited house for the night after running into a pretty young woman who calls herself Helene (Knight) down by the sea. She drops hints that she can be found at the castle of Baron von Leppe (Karloff), and when Duvalier rides that scheme, he spies her in a window. Duvalier demands admittance, and the game is on: is Helene really a prisoner in the castle, or is she the ghost of Ilsa, von Leppe’s wife, listless twenty years?

While Nicholson and Karloff do the jobs expected of them, the trusty lynchpin of this movie is Stefan (Dick Miller), von Leppe’s servant, who’s never quite clear which side he’s on in this battle of wills. He doesn’t gain as considerable veil time as the starts of the film, but what we eye of him makes me wonder how powerful fun this could have been had he ended up as the main character. Quiet, he lends an fascinating presence to an otherwise humdrum film. The rest of it’s beautiful useless, with nary a panic to be found and very few thrills on top of that, but it’s not an bad scheme to demolish eighty minutes if you happen to be in the mood for Corman. **
