Welcome to the world of Gothic Horror, Film Noir etc.
I worked for the BBC Film Studios in Ealing, Lime Grove and Television Centre through 1969 and the 1970s, 'the good old days' - power cuts/blackouts, candles, three day week for some and of course Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Some uploads are my original creations, some are Public Domain Movies - the 'ΣΒΤ' brand mark in the top left corner means I have done work on a public domain print by editing or adding the soundtrack, or editing the visuals; these are shared for the purposes of critical comment, discussion and education. The channel claims no ownership of public domain material and acknowledges that all uploaded material is the sole property of the original creator(s)/ owner(s).
The Ritz brothers were hugely successful on stage. It's said their appeal was never captured on film and video. Seems to be true. Harry Ritz has a kind of Sid Caesar vibe.
HAMMER Films always have an awesome aura about them. Terence Fisher is a master with set lighting. And the sets themselves are absolutely breathtaking. Just watch "The Brides of Dracula" for some astounding camera set ups inside the Baron Meinster Castle. True movie craft at work. I like this movie but not the third act. Why would you go through all the effort of kidnapping this British lady only to allow the husband to live. You're just asking for trouble. I was thinking this movie is gonna go there! And then they didn't. 🤔 That would've made this movie amazing, but instead...they take the easy way out and make the last 25 minutes a total let down.
I am now in the future and can see atom bombs going off in many parts of the world Russia just had an explosion just like this atomic explosion. So I am going back to before I was born to see what the world was.
It sure is fun to watch entertainment made by human beings. Not a computer or AI was used to make this movie. I guess I'm getting old but I wish computers would just go away. Movies like this are proof that we did just fine without them. Although, I will say that I love using this thing in my hand to complain about how computers are ruining the world. 😂😮😂 Oh yeah, I enjoyed the movie!
You used to be able to watch all these Hammer films for free of charge on RU-vid. Now the hogs charge for every one of them! I have absolutely had it with RU-vid.! It sucks!
