There is no doubt of the effectiveness of this picture of the revenge taken by a crazy old man on an animal trainer who, years before, had ruined the life of his daughter. Such pictures belong to the Maupassant school of art that makes its ideal of terror and horror, knowing that these leave a deeper impression on the audience than almost anything else; They are not so apt to be elevating as sorrow; but, for momentary effectiveness, there is nothing better. The plot is ably constructed and the players have put life into it. The script is by Marguerite Bertsch and it was produced by Frederick Thomson. Charles Kent plays the old man very well indeed, while the victim of his hate is played by Paul Bourgeois, who also does well. - The Moving Picture World, September 27, 1913
