  4. UNWATCHABLE WITH THE DARK VIGNETTE AROUND IT…DOWNLOAD AT TORRENZ…..GET THE TORRENT DOWNLOAD ON U-TORRENT….BEST WAY TO WATCH ANY MOVIE……

  9. Visually defective. Image is only visible in the center of screen, the rest is dark. It's near impossible to tell what is happening. Please resubmit.

  24. This is public domain anyway, no point to altering it which anyway does not affect copyright…..TIP, rather than render it unwatcheable , just up load in mirror image, at least on viewing it can be undone. Just tampering with the image annoys and distracts, and for no reason

  26. who has made this film " unwatchable" ,is it the uploader or you tube. Because I don't get why uploader would bother putting the film up like this.
    and why are couple of posts here cursing Google chrome? what's that about

  28. Other than the title, this flick has nothing to do with Edgar Allan Poe's "The Black Cat". However, it's one of the few films that starred both Lugosi and Karloff (it is rumored that they did not like each other in real life…probably some sort of professional jealousy since they were both top horror film stars at the time) and is worth a view, imo.

    The plot is a bit complex and involves incidents that took place during WWI fifteen years before the film starts. Karloff was a military officer then who abandoned his garrison at a fort in Austria and the result was that the Russians then killed thousands at the fort and capture hundreds that wound up in a brutal POW camp. Lugosi was one of the very few to survive and has returned to the fort. Why? Well, it turns out that, after the war, Karloff, being an architect, also went back there and built a mansion on the fort's ruins. He also, believing Lugosi dead, marries the latter's wife and, after she dies of pneumonia, then marries Lugosi's daughter who closely resembles her mother! All of these surprises, including Karloff's keeping the embalmed wife of Lugosi in the old fort's basement, come out during the flick.

    Further complicating matters is that Karloff had become a High Priest of a Satan worshiping cult during Lugosi's internment and is now looking for a virgin to sacrifice to Satan during the "Rite of Lucifer" which must be celebrated during a full moon which just happens to be occurring as Lugosi is visiting Karloff. The requisite virgin is conveniently provided by the new wife of a couple who cross paths with Lugosi on a stormy night as they are on their way to celebrate their honeymoon in a nearby town and, because of a car accident, must stay at the mansion with Lugosi until the next day. Anyway, I'd seen this one many years ago, and it's still interesting to watch for the art deco interiors that were considered futuristic back in the '30's. I won't reveal the ending except to say that Karloff, fearing one day he would be held responsible for all of his evil deeds, had rigged up his mansion with tons of dynamite that could be ignited by throwing some red switches in the basement of the fort the mansion was built on. Enough said.

  30. Go to Daily Motion if you want to see this masterpiece without the butchering the uploader has done. It's probably the greatest horror movie ever made. Incredibly underrated. I highly recommend watching this on Daily Motion.

  42. I don't even know how to upload movies to Youtube so I won't complain like everybody else. I did however follow everyone's suggestion and watch it on Dailymotion instead though. When I watched this on television as a child they exorcised the comic relief scene with the two policemen. It truly is a masterpiece. The camera movement and angles and the composition of key shots are really wonderful and the dialogue is phenomenal including Karloff's monologue as he walks with Lugosi through the depths of his house. Even David Manners stops minding his manners long to be a decent leading man. And it's so compact. Today a director would take at least twice as long to tell the very same story.

  48. Anyone can identify the music that begins approx 46:50? Sounds like Bach; I know it, but just can't place it, and of course arrangements can change a melody with just minor changes. I thought it might be Gluck in the "Dance of the Spirits."

    The other composition are the funereal movement from the Schumann Quintet in E flat, Brahms' Rhapsody in b op. 79, no. 1, and most prominently the Liszt piano sonata. I think someone mentioned Liszt's Les Preludes and Tasso, but certainly the most familiar themes of the former are not in the score. Then of course there's the Bach Toccata in d. The Romeo and Juliet love theme (melodically altered) is the only bad choice in my opinion. The andante from the Liszt sonata would have been better. To be fair, the Tchaikovsky may have sounded less hackneyed in 1930s than later.

  49. Good old Karloff and Lugosi movie. I like how it ends with the man after he reads the newspaper article looks at his wife and she looks at him with the music.
