This mostly forgotten entry into "hag horror" is better than many of the others and came a little too late to the game to have any major impact. Compared to the similar films being done by Joan Crawford or Bette Davis, this one doesn't appear to have as much of a budget or a big studio push behind it. Miriam Hopkins is excellent as the washed up film star who doesn't like to leave her opulent Hollywood mansion a la Norma Desmond. A mysterious drifter comes into her life and the bodies start piling up.
