Oh happy day. Others can see one of my 13 all time favorite films, I Walked With a Zombie. Especially look for the two scenes with Sir Lancelot, a famous calypso singer, who wrote his signature song, Shame and Scandal (It as many alternative titles) for this film. Notice how Tourneur frames him against an extremely evocative sky in his second appearance. A truly chilling sequence! And that last sequence on the beach is one of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen in a film. The shot from above the zombie's head with the waves lapping up in the beach. OMG that is Tourneur ar his best! IMO the film is a stne cold masterpiece. BTW you can hear Sir Lancelot's song on a 78 rpm on KZbin.

I really liked I walked with a zombie I imagine the subject matter was quite brave at that time. Thanks for watching.

I really liked this set, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a yearly Halloween watch for me.

I just picked up the Lawton Collection today. I already have the films on a Val Lewton DVD box set but it really deserved an upgrade. I’m looking forward to getting DEMON POND. I’m glad to have come across your channel.

I'm hoping to pick this up during a Criterion flash sale. They usually have one in October here in the States. Thanks for all the information you give on the films. You often help me decide if a movie is something I need or not.
