Product Description:
The most celebrated star in the history of screen horror headlines these two atmospheric works filled with producer Val Lewton's trademark mix of mood madness and premeditated dread. Boris Karloff shares a quarantined house with other strangers on a plague-infested perhaps spirit-haunted Isle of the Dead. St. Mary's of Bethlehem Asylum in 1761 London is the setting for Bedlam. Karloff gives an uncanny performance as the doomed overseer who fawns on high-society benefactors while ruling the mentally disturbed inmates with an iron fist. Mark Robson who edited three films for Lewton and directed five guides both films.Running Time: 151 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 053939724226

I think, that's why some people -- especially, the youngers -- might not enjoy this production. But for Cinema lovers, it is a worth watching movie.
ISLE OF THE DEAD: It is not as good as "Bedlam". Despite some good scenes, ... Read More

Isle of the Dead
"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE / Hamlet Act 1. Scene V abt. 1601
`Under conquest and oppression the people of Greece allowed their legends to degenerate into superstition; the Goddess Aphrodite giving way to the `Vorvolaka.' This nightmare figure was very much alive in the mines of the peasants when Greece fought the victorious war of 1912."
