Can't agree on the cinematography however. I found it to be very atmospheric.

It didn't ruin it by any means, but damn it was harsh for my sensitive eyes. Once again, i guess that was kinda the point. Ashe.

The Black Sleep, followed by Terror in the Haunted House. I have a lot of work to do so made sure to fall asleep at the computer after watching vintage horror on Hulu. Terror in the Haunted House is pretty weak. Not nearly enough Psychorama spooky faces for my taste.

The Man Who Changed His Mind (1936)



Surely the best 'Mad Scientist' film of Karloff (besides The Man they could not Hang). Karloff was as usually brilliant in the title role as Dr. Laurience but Frank Cellier, as Lord Haslewood, always got the attention too whenever he is on screen. His excellent portrayal of multiple personality provides the film with its most enjoyable scenes with adequate amount of humor. However, its takes on the press and the corporate control conveys messages to which we can still relate today.

Overall, only a hour long fantastic treat for Karloff fans.

Two five-star films in one evening is a good evening.

A very favorite Bergman film of mine. One of his finest.
