1963 - The Terror

THE TERROR
Un film de Roger Corman

Résumé:

Un jeune officier (Jack Nicholson) de l'armée de Napoléon aperçoit une femme mystérieuse à la fenêtre du château d'un baron très âgé (Boris Karloff), elle ressemble étrangement à la jeune Baronne morte depuis 20 ans. Il découvre qu'elle est la servante d'une vieille sorcière qui veut pousser le baron au suicide.

The Terror starring and partialy directed by a very young Jack Nicholson.
This film is infamous for having two of the greatest icons in film history together in the same place for one project,Jack Nicholson in His beginning moments before great stardome and Boris Karloff an already legendary screen actor in His later years of glory.
The story leads Us on a very strange adventure of the supernatural kind as a young Soldier of the French army played by Nicholson is drawn mysteriously to a creepy old castle by the cliffs of the Sea by an equaly mysterious Woman played by Sandra Knight.
The young soldier is soon brought into murkily dark domains of murder,ghosts,and just downright odd happenings,all centered around the strange but beautiful Woman and an eccentric Baron played by the late great Boris Karloff.
Now this film is in no way an award caliber movie but it does have all the great elements of a Corman classic and is a lot of fun to watch and if for nothing else,then at least the pairing of a legend and one in the making.
All that said,please enjoy this great Public Domain classic from 1963 and just grab some popcorn and a soda and have some fun.
