Two Boris Karloffs for the price of one! Here the horror legend plays twin brothers in a creaky old 1930's piece. It's cool to see Karloff actually given the chance to act as the two brothers do have two distinct personalities, one an evil murderous tyrant who rapes and murders various women, also the occasional man who gets under his skin to be fair, and the other a gentleman. The black room itself is the place where the evil brother disposes of the bodies of his enemies. Did every castle have a body disposal system back in the day? I'd like to think so. The hero of the movie turns out to be a big Scooby-Doo dog. While not as amazing as the monster movies he's most well known for it's worth watching if you are into the classic era for some prime Karloff.
Peeping Boris!:
"He loves them violently!":
