Quotes
Myles Donovan: How do you see yourself? As white magic fighting black? Good against Evil?
Dr. David Sorell: Against you, yes. Against this - thing - you've done.
Myles Donovan: Do you understand what evil really is? Because it's won it's case, doctor. I mean, one worships the all powerful if one worships at all. Look at the misery of our world, the agony and the suffering. Can you doubt that Satan leaped from heaven, not as the vanquished, but as the victor? And gave us science, the destroyer, my own particular shrine. We're all hostages of hell, doctor! All we can do is cry for mercy. Do you deny my logic?
Dr. David Sorell: Your case fails.
Myles Donovan: Prove it.
Dr. David Sorell: Life is a denial. What you worship is death.

a frightening, errie experience

I have a taped copy of this movie ...... somewhere. It is quite special, so I was surprised to find it unlisted in guidebooks such as Mauldin's. An important element involves a demonic force trying to seduce a young woman when she gazes into a mirror. Maybe it's just me, but the idea of an evil force from inside a mirror trying to distort your view of reality and control you seems particularly frightening --- of course one thinks of Dead of Night (1945), the old classic horror film. Also, the scenes where the demon is being summoned are quite disturbing --- the makers of the film seem to have had some special insight into demonology. Bradford Dillman is already dead for most of the movie, but he plays a great haunted spirit on both sides of the grave, and Louis Jourdan is good as the calm, rational psychiatrist trying to help the woman by any means possible, including unorthodox ones.
