Ever since I saw Cat People I’ve wanted this release as well. 🤓 #criterion #physicalmedia #vallewton Have never seen them.

The Val Lewton boxset is an astounding collection. Each movie is too much to take in in a single viewing.

3 things about Jacques Tourneur’s THE LEOPARD MAN [1943]
1. A scratched hand is the only time we see blood.
2. Compensation for his lost leopard: $250.
3. Nocturnal, hooded procession straight out of a Buñuel film.#3things #movies #halloween #horrormovies #ValLewton #cinema #CinemaMastodon

3 things about Mark Robson’s THE GHOST SHIP [1943]
1. Chain cacophony.
2. Rigging an alarm system using a torn bedsheet.
3. He violently smashes the plaque in half.#3things #horrormovies #halloween #ValLewton #movies #cinema #cinemastodon

A teenage girl takes a nerve-wracking nocturnal walk, briefly startled by a train and a pair of glowing eyes in the darkness, before her desperate cries for help lead to a death conveyed by a pool of blood under the front door. #JacquesTourneur's third and final horror film for #ValLewton is a murder-mystery set in New Mexico, with three standout scenes of subtle terror in the Cat People tradition. #OnThisDay 80 years ago, RKO released #TheLeopardMan.

...employing an eclectic range of actors including Simone Simon, Kim Hunter, Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. Among the highlights: Robson's brilliant, influential Greenwich Village Satanic cult chiller #TheSeventhVictim (1943) - still among Hollywood's bleakest hours.

"We do have a message, and our message is that death is good". Remembering the innovative Vladimir Ivanovich Leventon, a.k.a. #ValLewton (1904-51), the Russian-American film producer, screenwriter and novelist, born in Yalta on this day. Overseeing RKO's wartime horror unit, and working with directors Jacques Tourneur, Robert Wise and Mark Robson, he produced nine evocative, understated genre films in four years,...

The Ghost Ship (1943) directed by Mark Robson is seen as one of the lesser of the 1940s Val Lewton-produced RKO horror films. That may be true but it's still a very fine visually impressive shipboard horror film.

Producer Val Lewton is one of the most important figures in horror film history, but is, unfortunately, only really discussed today by filmmakers and cinephiles. This sequence from CAT PEOPLE is a MasterClass in how to create tension and terror onscreen, a carefully orchestrated attack on the senses common in his films.

I Walked With a Zombie (1943), the best voodoo movie ever made and the best zombie movie ever made. A superb example of subtle intelligent character-driven horror.
Directed by Jacques Tourneur for Val Lewton's RKO B unit.
Inspired by Charlotte Brontë’s great gothic novel Jane Eyre.
It treats voodoo quite seriously and without sensationalism.

The Seventh Victim (AKA The 7th Victim, 1943), one of the RKO horror B-movies produced by Val Lewton. This is possibly the bleakest movie made in Hollywood in the 40s. It's a mystery story, but with devil-worshippers and a distinct film noir vibe. Great movie.
