This flick about a murderer of wealthy women is definitely not too suspenseful, or for that matter, notable. In fact, this strictly average production is only mentionable as a book-end of film noir.
This appears to be a British film, and it owes a lot to the British visionary Alfred Hitchcock. CAST A DARK SHADOW, however, also made me recall a hysterical Charlie Chaplin picture called MONSIER VERDOUX. That film was funny, however, and this one is dull.
Still, there are some worse films out there. It's just that with so much to choose from, why pick CAST A DARK SHADOW?
