Mad

Forget Roman Polanski, Bergman is the king of psychological horror! One of his very best. What he could have done to a Hammer movie in the late 60s. "Hour of the Wolf" is a very original shocker. There's even a guy who resembles Bela Lugosi. A married couple stay on an island and encounter the owner and his friends. Lots of different camera styles, over-exposed footage, flashbacks, strange characters, night scenes and closeups. This movie is not just for art house people.
