简介:

  Out of the fifties 'B' Science-Fiction monster movies, this easily ranks as the best. It's most notable as the film that ALIEN is an unaccredited remake of, thus giving it a certain historical significance.
  The intriguing plot is about the rescue of the only marooned survivor (Col. Carruthers) of an ill-fated expedition to Mars. The authorities, pig-headed as usual, falsely assume that he murdered his fellow crew members, so that he'd have more provisions to survive; hence he is being brought back to Earth to face court-martial for murder. (There is also a somewhat interesting plot reversal here: Most movies of this nature usually begin with the ship leaving Earth, enroute to its otherworld destination, while, in this case, the "story" is believed finished, and begins as the characters take-off from the other planet, returning to Earth). As the rescue ship is leaving Mars, a lurking, ominous shadow is seen in the lower compartment. (A frightening, atmospheric moment, accomplished through sheer economy and simplicity).
  Carruthers insists of his innocence to his fellow captors, claiming that his original crew mates were slaughtered by a hostile, unseen presence on the desolute red planet, but three-guesses as to their reaction to his unusual plea. Naturally, he can't prove it, and 50's space authorities were not very alien conscience at the time. (As a side-thought, "unseen menace" may remind you of that highly "original" BLAIR WITCH).
  As everyone sacks out, a hapless supporting charactor whose name is at the bottom of the casting list (guess what will happen to him?) hears something in the lower compartment. Despite your futile "don't go down there, you jerk!" pleas, he does just that, and is appropriately killed (more like thoroughly obliterated) by the shadowy figure with insatiable blood lust on its mind. In the victim's case, dereliction of duty and sheer cowardliness would have been the wise decision. The scene is actually well-directed (for a change) and develops much suspense, as the entire film surprisingly does.
  The crew finally catches on that they have an unwanted ship crasher on board, and try every possible means at their disposal to eliminate it, but the unknown creature seems to copping an anti-death attitude. Proving to be an even more clever, worthy adversary, 'IT!' also hides out in the ventilation shafts of the ship (now that should ring a bell). Cahn's forceful direction generates considerable tension as the malevolent stowaway works its way up from one level of the confined ship to the next, eventually leaving the remaining characters trapped at the top. The movie's suspense is blunt and right to the point: "IT!' has to kill them or starve, hence they have to kill "IT!" or die. Nothing like those "no two ways about it" choices. Rent it, or check for it on cable if you wish to know the outcome.
  For a low-budget quickie, IT! is quite impressive and memorable. The dreaded sense of claustrophobic tension, rendering the characters' helpless entrapment, is highly effective. This is a production in which the limited budget and small sets actually work in favor of the plot's scary ambience. The black & white photography (Yes, it's one of those!) helps to enhance its dark, creepy mood, and the sense of apprehension is quite high. (Modern day color freaks never seem to take that into consideration). The plot is also somewhat cynically ironic: If the creature hadn't stowed away on the ship, Carruthers would have most likely been found guilty of the charges against him.
  The intelligent script (see what I mean about "rareity") was penned by noted Science-Fiction author Jerome Bixby (remember Twilight Zone's "It's a Good Life")? The picture's taut editing eliminates any extraneous dross. (ALIEN tended to drag in its first hour with its sophomoric dialogue, and why did it have to include that stupid and ultimately counter-productive sub-plot of Ash being a robot, and further dragging the story down to another big bad conspiracy cliche? UNNECESSARY!!!)
  Director Cahn astutely keeps the rubber-suited monster off-screen and in the shadows through-out most of the proceedings, keeping your paranoid imagination on constant alert. Unfortunately, perhaps at the studio's commercial insistance, it is a little over-revealed at the climax, but I haven't claimed this to be the perfect masterpiece. The performances, though nothing award-winning, are nevertheless cool enough so that one becomes sincerely concerned as to their fates. Not many movies in recent times ever come close to achieving that. They can be over-produced from here to eternity, and usually only succeed in being gloriously annoying.
  This film's story is not really totally original (what is?), for it is based on A.E. Van Vogt's "VOYAGE OF THE SPACE BEAGLE." All ALIEN fanatics should track down an old used copy to see where the initial influence came from.
  As long as you're not craving another CGI wind-ding, you may find it worthwhile. Just don't expect the women to be Ripley precursors. This was still the sock-knitting fifties, sad to say.

简介:

  这是一部以营造气氛见长的经典恐怖片,叙述,阐述,陈述,描写1630年一个女巫和她情人被她自己的兄弟杀死。两百年后,两人复活,向她兄弟的后代(其中有一个酷似女巫)复仇。
  跟多数意大利恐怖片一样,本片的故事并不特别,但哥特式的场景阴森难忘。故事灵感来自果戈里小说。女主角一人分饰两角,暗示善恶之间只有一线之隔,诠释,演译,阐释,解释起来的样子就像是神情恍惚的肯尼迪夫人。

  众多恐怖电影迷们都以为他们的钟爱己在Universal、Hammer、Roger Corman和其他一些著名的恐怖电影制片室和生产商摄制的各类影片中得到了实现。其实只有当你到阳光灿烂的意大利对满布阴霾的意国电影走走看看时,你才算真正经历了经典的恐怖电影。
  Black Sunday (1960) 又名 The Mask of Satan:意大利电影制作者再次着手恐怖电影的拍摄已经是四年以后了,在Renato Polselli同样受欢迎的《The Vampire and the Ballerina》(1960)之后,摄影师Mario Bava首次作为导演浮出水面,创作了一部代表性的恐怖电影,这宣告恐怖电影作为一种电影类型从此诞生。
  The Mask of Satan是真正意义上的恐怖电影代表作,故事大致源于果戈里的《the Viy》,它叙述,阐述,陈述,描写一个处死二百年后的巫婆复活人世起始,开端,肇始,启始报复当初处死她的人们的后代,然而这个故事相对于Bava那几乎要跳出屏幕般的特殊视觉效果而言稍显次要,他的构图如此繁复,纷繁,繁杂,杂乱,以至于影片的每一帧都可以被放大并挂在墙上,光与影的强烈对比营造出有什于Universal公司早期作品的恐怖效果,Bava创造出一出惊心动魄的神怪故事,充斥了巫婆、幽灵、秘密通道、凄叫的野狗、恶毒的公车司机甚至包括对着路人张牙舞爪的树枝。每一位看完此片的恐怖电影迷都着实大开眼界。
  这部影片在意大利取得成就,胜利,凯旋,成果并预示着Bava执导生涯的起始,开端,肇始,启始,它在美国经过删改后冠以《黑色星期天》(Black Sunday),同样大受欢迎。虽说它经过了修改,但基本上还是保证了原作的汁味,并一着被能在首映时有幸一睹的美国电影迷们津津乐道难以忘怀。影片取得成就,胜利,凯旋,成果的一大功劳归于片中的影星Barbara Steele,这部作品标志着Barbara Steele演艺生涯的发韧,之后她又在九部义大利恐怖电影中担纲领衔,主役,担纲,主角,每一部都因她的展现,呈现,显现,体现而亮色。她那阴暗的造型、冷淡的情欲使她自然而然地适演恐怖片,由她演出的多数电影取得成就,胜利,凯旋,成果都与她的展现,呈现,显现,体现密不可分,她的另外几部意大利恐怖电影为:《The Horrible Dr. Hichcock》( 1962)、《The Ghost》(1963)、《Long Hair of Death》(1964)、《 Castle of Blood》(1964)、《Nightmare Castle》(1965)和《She-Beast》 (1965)、 《Terror Creatures from the Grave》(1966)、《An Angel for Satan》(1966)。
