Trailer 395 of 464
The imaginative films of Czech animator/director Karel Zeman were poorly served in the West, usually presented if at all in heavily Americanized recuts. This brilliantly designed 1957 gem wasn't released in the US until four years later and in the wrong screen ratio (the trailer obviously cuts off the top and bottom of the 1:33 frame). Zeman needs rediscovery.
Does anyone besides me recall the Westworld tv series ??? It only lasted 3 episodes, what a hunk of junk !. .
oh man!. The Robert Youngson film compilations and the books of William k Everson are what got me interested in silent film in the 60s and early 70s...
The Italian cutr looks beautiful but I sure miss Karloff's voice, that's a big loss. Drip Of Water scared the hell out of me as a kid !.
Mr. DeCoteau, if this was made in '63/'64, Joan was closer to 60...
