7/10
Grotesque quite sure, spooky a little, predicable never, assigned by Castle's trademark!!
25 March 2021
The worshipped director William Castle was so notorious director for made low budge horror pictures in a couple weeks or so, all those movies were highly creative to outweigh the scarce money involved on the production, also Castle was a crafty snaky charm, he was able to sell dry grass getting fire so easily with high power of inducement, clearly due the absence of offers by the majors studios he got contract the classy Robert Taylor and the lady Barbara Stanwyck for this bleak endeavor.

As Castle's precedent works "The Night Walker" doesn't won't run of this path, which Castle make a fortune, the storyline is pretty scary about a pretty old woman Irene Trent (Stanwyck) married with a blind elderly man Howard Trent (Hayden Rorke) actually a wealthy husband, his bookkeeper is the sophisticated Barry Morland (Robert Taylor) who manage all Howard Trend's huge properties, sadly Irene has been haunted by successive nightmares about a young good-looking tall man with blue eyes, meanwhile ruthlessly surveilled by his jealous ugly and impolite spouse.

After a quarrel with Irene, Howard Trent enters in his laboratory which came to explode, killing the man whose the body was never found, Irene decides moves due the recurrent bad dreams to her little house attached at her beauty parlor, drearily the change shows useless, the awkward nightmares carry on, so Barry Morland tries help the frantic woman taking her on those places which Irene barely remember, at long last she finds a clue over a chapel that supposedly she gets married at his dream.

Seemingly it's sounds, silly, grotesque and highly far-fetched, whereby really is arguably, although it was enough exciting and heavily daunting, a splendid ood entertainment even such level of the oddity, however one thing it isn't at all, foreseeable never, the viewer will he a great shock assigned by William Castle's trademark, don't miss it for nothing!!

Thanks for reading.
