a brilliant dark mystery from producer val lewton, this was director mark robson's first film. it's a rather obvious inspiration for rosemary's baby with a shower scene that looks awfully familiar as well. with a nihilistic tone and a shocking final scene, it's a wonder this fil... read more
The 7th Victim doesn't sound like much on paper but viewing it is an entirely different matter. It's a precursor to Rosemary's Baby, The Third Man and has has a shower scene that... well, just see it for yourself. One of Val Lewton's more impressive accomplishments. The 7th Victi... read more
This movie is predictable and unscary, but there are some good scenes too. This movie's not bad, but it's not good either.
This is a dark physiological thriller ahead of its time. Underline message; Sometimes it?s better to be dead! God bless you Val Lewton! This is a film not to be missed! The scene with the chair and the noose is as chilling as anything in contemporary film. As with all Lewton film... read more
A young girl searches New York for her elder sister, who has fallen in with a group of devil-worshippers. This isn't top-notch Val Lewton but it's still pretty great. I think there are more scenes and more characters than the typically slender running time can adequately sustain.... read more
Although most of the themes are left to imagination, as usual in any Val Lewton horror production, I surrender to the moody atmosphere director Mark Robson sets up. This was indeed a film ahead of its time, in its depiction of devil worshipers not as strange entities or mad caric... read more
Offbeat film with a gothic tone and noirish attitude about a young woman searching for her missing sister in New York and meets a group of parties who are similarly interested. Val Lewton produced this suggestive film that leaves true horror to your imagination with one of the b... read more
Very stylish and ahead of its time. Cool mixture of horror and noir. Interesting depiction of devil worshipers as not demons or cartoonish crazies- but as selfish and bad people but ones that could be your co-workers or neighbors. Great use of shadow and light.
Actually, The 7th Victim is pretty similar to Rosemary's Baby, but made 25 years earlier. I must say that this is a terribly underrated early horror classic that is truly scary and suspenseful. Val Lewton really knows what he's doing. One thing that I didn't enjoy was Kim Hunter'... read more
Not unlike most of Val Lewton's stuff, short. 71 minutes, not much in the way of action which is fine, some very creepy moments and themes, but a far cry from, say, Hitchcock (yeah, I know, Master comparisons aren't fair.)
This is the greatest of producer Val Lewton's justly celebrated low-budget chillers. Full Review
Endlessly gripping and endlessly fascinating. Full Review
the gauziest, maybe the most influential, surely the most underestimated, Lewton production. Full Review
Perhaps producer Val Lewton's most personal film, and certainly one of his greatest. Full Review
What other movie opens with Satanism in Greenwich Village, twists into urban paranoia, and climaxes with a suicide? Full Review
It is clear that the film was designed to appeal to an intelligent film-going crowd out for a thrill as well as those just looking to get the bejeezus scared out of them. Full Review
It's a very well-made psychological thriller (before such a term even existed) filled with good performances. Full Review
Creepy classic horror
