1963 directed by Roger Corman starring Boris Karloff, Jack Nicholson, Sandra Knight and Dick Miller. Nicholson as a young officer in Napoleon's army follows a strange woman to the castle of Baron Victor Frederick Von Leppe, (Karloff),.
@hillbillyhatfield72 I agree with everything you've said. It is atmospheric, starts to wear thin after a while. Nicholson, at this early point in his career, is not up to Karloff.
Karloff part was shot in 3 days, right after the raven. But the rest was done over months
With different directors. They were trying to make a movie from the karloff scraps. Its ok, but nothing to rave about. At best 2 out of 5. I have seen worse. The scenery is good, and karloff is great. However he's good just reading the morning paper. I just have no idea of what the skeleton is at the first.
@bilkomax I believe it was filmed in three or five days using the sets of the Raven as they were being dismantled. As for Nicholson, he isn't very good.

Wasnt this filmed in conjunction with "The Raven " using same locations etc . Its one of the films that supposedly embarrasses Nicholson the most
