Movie Description
While rarely considered to be one of Val Lewton's best films, ISLE OF THE DEAD does contain the producer's typically effective use of atmosphere. Set during the 1912 war on a Greek Island, the film focuses on six people who are staying on a remote island in order to escape the plague. Boris Karloff gives his typically strong performance as General Pherides, while Ellen Drew plays a Greek girl suspected of being a vampire. Constant winds and creepy sets illustrate each character's general anxiety as disease and suspicions build to a chilling climax.
Synopsis
When an island becomes infested with a deadly plague, a diverse group of people must be quarantined. But they might not be as safe as they think, since there could be an evil vampire in their midst who's carrying the dreaded disease...
