Starts good. The demon was good, although some will have difficulty appreciating it because of modern standards.
I wasn't sure I liked the lead actor. He didnt bring anything other than an American suaveness. Very cold, and negates any suspense in this type of movie. The plot was slow and non progressive at times. For example, three times we had mentions of the ink on a card, we got the answer the first time around, and it wasn't even much of a shock then. The movie lacked scenes of interest or originality, like all the 0 wind, and things that were there and how aren't. The random mystery elements that occured were just time wasters. This movie was a waste of a good atmosphere.
Could have been great. To many it is. So I recommend it.

A classic.. The monster's close-up's were added by the studio without Tourneur, (much to his chagrin) making the evil entity less frightening.. Still very much worth a watch

Oh, boy! This one is a gem!

I've started watching it lying down and by the final moments, I was sitting up straight, my eyes fixed on the screen, already aware of what was about to happen, but totally interested on how it would be presented.

It's not totally original, but its delivery makes it worthwhile.
For what matters, both the acting and the cinematography are nicely done.
But here, above all, lies is a great script!

What a man of science oughta do when it's someone else's dark moves that can save his own life?
Believe, surrendering to the possibilities of the unknown?
Simply one of the best psychological thrillers, tempered with the supernatural - just for good measure -, that I've seen in my whole life.

Gem of a horror movie. Tourneur was a master of his craft.

Never heard of this before but wow this film is legendary! And probably the scariest horror film from 1950s! _Curse of The Demon_ is a beautiful horror noir that tells a story about the mystery behind superstition and witchcraft. Everything about this film is so so good, the direction, the performance, the score, the atmosphere, they worked really well together. Unlike any other 50s horror that I've watched, this film is straight up scary because there are moments I was genuinely frightened especially when Mr. Holden was sneaking into Mr. Karswell's house. Lots ot crazy things happening in one film, cult, seance, hypnotism, and demon. What's not to love? The demon presentation is amazing for its time and I'm satisfied with the ending!
