Supernatural (1933)
4/10
Visually impressive but that's it
29 October 2001
Silly horror tale about the soul of an executed murderess possessing the body of another woman. Film starts off well but quickly becomes slow and boring. Some impressive visuals throughout, but the main plot is absurd--according to this, the spirits of executed killers possess living people and have them perform "copycat" murders! It's ridiculous and we're supposed to take it seriously.

The cast doesn't help. With the sole exception on Vivienne Osborne as the murderess everyone is horrible--even Carole Lombard and Randolph Scott! Lombard was forced into this movie--she really didn't want to do it--and it shows. Montgomery is certainly handsome but VERY bland and dull. The rest of the cast is just hopeless--none of them went on to become well-known--it's easy to see why.

An old, creaky boring horror film. Don't bother.
