glorious bava brilliance!!!, 2 November 2001
9/10

my personal favorite of bava's films, though perhaps not technically his best. haunting tale of a town living in superstition and a scientific medical man there to look into bizarre death. spectacular mix of supernatural and gothic horror, impeccably shot as is always true of bava. the swing shot and strange chase scene are pinnacles of excellence. one of horror's true classics...
