Im Banne des Dr. Monserrat (1967)
68KIm Banne des Dr. Monserrat: Directed by Michael Reeves. With Boris Karloff, Catherine Lacey, Elizabeth Ercy, Ian Ogilvy. An aging hypnotist creates a device that allows the user to control the mind of another person, but his wife abuses its power by manipulating a younger man to commit evil acts.
“Thereu0026#39;s something that suggests world domination in Boris Karloffu0026#39;s first description of his technique to hypnotize young people but this is soon dispelled by a surprising performance in a rather average film. Interestinglyly pieced together, the director tries hard to portray the idea of control which only sometimes works, but nevertheless does get better as the film nears a climax. Predictable in plot but still violent enough to present a challenge to those expect a little more from their Karloff movies. Great just to see Karloff in an argument in a newsagents at the very beginning – not a usual scene from your run-of-the-mill fantasy thrillers!”
