Mad Love (1935)

By the name itself "Dr. Gogol" is like one of the pretty interesting characters that we always love to see on screen & Lorre's bald, sinister looks & his unique touch for Gogol's persona in this role made it a pure gem for any classic genre fan.



There's a scene where Dr. Gogol, seated in one of the boxes in the theater. We only see half of his face, because the other half hidden in shadows. We clearly get a sense of evil with only a minimal of lighting and gesture in the sinister figure of Dr. Gogol. These closeups on Lorre, the shadows in the hallway magnificently worked with black-and-white cinematography. Another brilliant showcase of Karl Freund's amazing works.

The Sadist (1963)

Fantastic! Excellent camera works, perfectly tight script and the solid casts surely made it an exemplary achievement in low budget film making.

>>: B+
