La vergine di Norimberga (1963)
1964
Daily Cinema no.8872 (5-6 February 1964) p.7 (UK)
The film tends to overdo everything: too many twisting passages,
too many midnight prowls, too many meaningful, but unexplained glances
and far too much thumping background music [...] But the overall effect,
with the striking use of colour and setting, is undeniably spinechilling
[...] Non-squeamish audiences with a taste for this kind of horror hokum
certainly won't be disappointed. - From a review by M.H.
Kine Weekly no.2940 (6 February 1964) p.19 (UK)
This is effective and, at times, thrilling nonsense that should get
by with most audiences [...] The castle setting is magnificently vast
and eerie, and clever lighting adds to the spooky effect. The incredible
story is presented clearly and without many confusing red herrings [...]
The photography is artistically atmospheric, but the dubbed dialogue
is stilted. - From a review by Grahame Clarke
