| User ReviewBill TA bit of a step down from the previous Inner Sanctum series, this one has Lon Chaney as an artist who has a mishap and goes blind. His girlfriend's father offers up his eyes in his will when he dies. When the father shows up murdered, the fiancee thinks he did it! Bit of lousy acting here (especially from Acquanetta) sort of mars this. Much better IS movies out there. |
| User ReviewOrlok WFor a B-Movie, it's exceptional--Classic Lon Chaney Jr.!! |
| User ReviewJohn CA very enjoyable little B-movie, despite the wooden and utterly awful performance by Acquanetta. I've seen potted plants with more style and range than her. |
| User ReviewRichard Canother entry in the inner sanctum series. worth a l OO k. although stilted as an actor the lovely acquanetta looks fabulous in profile. |
| User ReviewKevin NThe third Inner Sanctum film is a pretty standard mystery programmer. It's good fun right down to the unintentional humour during the scene where Chaney puts acid in his eyes. The only major gripe is that Acquanetta's acting is nonexistent. Other than that it's a snappy time killer. |
| User ReviewSteve Gwatchable. no pun intended. Tanya's performance wasn't very good. |
| User ReviewBob WAcquanetta is great as David's crazy model, and she's also the easy suspect for all the nefarious going-ons in the film. And if the movie had stayed as weak as it began, she would have been the only suspect. But Lon Chaney Jr. also gives a fine performance, one that gives viewers the idea that there's something a little off with his character. The other actors are excellent in their parts too, and, supported by a clever script, they turn what started out as a disaster into a fun viewing experience. |
