Carnival of Souls

Rating:
Summary: Best For Those On A Budget
Review: The video transfer on this Alpha Video release is surprisingly good. This film is essential to your film collection and if you are on a budget this is the one to get. No bells and whistles, but you can't beat it for under $8.

Summary: Very good film from the early horror genre
Review: This film is really subtle; it doesn't rely on gore or "camp" for one; secondly, it has some really nice, haunting imagery that is unforgettable (especially the "creepy man" everyone refers to, who I learned was actually played by the director). The music also adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the atmosphere and I really like the elusive idea of a "Carnival of Souls" and how the main character is drawn there but doesn't know why until the very end.
