| 10.31.06 | DVD | Karloff!!! The Plague!!!! Premature Burial!!!!! KARLOFF!!!!! At least there's an isle in this, and some dead. yay for non-misleading titles. Some people get stuck in a place when plague breaks out and they do a self-quarantine and sit around talking about faith and whatnot while they drop like flies. Karloff plays a tough-man army general nicknamed The Watchdog because he obeys the laws so carefully that he's not averse to kill his own countrymen for breaking it. Plus there's some greek mythology thrown in for good measure and talk of old races and ancient blood. gothic. dark. halloweeny. lots of shots of Karloff's crazy eyes... ooooOOooooh |
