The Old Dark House
June 26, 2023
Director: James Whale // Starring: Boris Karloff & Ernest Thesiger
Bring Me The Axe closes out their Pride 2023 series with an enthusiastic love letter to James Whale's 1932 pre-code classic for Universal, The Old Dark House, a movie about class consciousness, secrecy, Lilian Bond's feet, and super gay double entendres. It is a perfectly executed piece of gothic horror starring Boris Karloff that must be seen to be believed.
