Horror Hotel (1960)

City Of The Dead

AKA: City of the Dead
Director: John Llewellyn Moxey
Starring: Christopher Lee


Synopsis:
A college student travels to a small Massachusetts town to research witchcraft and winds up as a sacrifice to a coven.

My Take:
A simple plot takes a back seat to atmosphere in this one where being filmed in black and white actually helps the cause. Always mesmerizing to watch Christopher Lee stand out in even an average role.

Rating: In the Middle
