This seems mis-classified to me. It is a simple horror film. Great if you like plenty of gore and little else.

I thought this was a horror film, but it turns out it is a true story. It is seriously bleak and unrelentingly wretched.

Dated, childish, predictable... shall I continue... it seems much older than 1981, stereotypical characters, limited cast, just bad bad bad.

This film has no spoken English or subtitles. What exactly was the point of giving it an English title?

Visually it was pretty good, but the story is very thin and stretched out to fill the time. Some aspects of the story are introduced out of nowhere and do not seem convincing. There are long passages with an appalling soundtrack and not much else.

It was better than I expected considering it was made in 1936. Unfortunately the sound quality was less than perfect, so much of the ideas behind it were lost to me.

This was a good story and should have been a great film, but something was lacking. It was all a bit sketchy and vague.

Relentlessly down in the mouth. Not a glimmer of anything uplifting, happy or hopeful. Just grime, sweat and misery.

Very enjoyable, but in the last episode I was puzzled to see a woman with a trendy short haircut. It looked completely out of place. I wonder if women really had hair like that then.
