Undead of Night
By Jeffrey M. Anderson
General Nikolas Pherides, a.k.a. "the Watchdog" (Boris Karloff), is among a group of people quarantined on a Greek island. Paranoia sets in when an old woman accuses a beautiful housekeeper (Ellen Drew) of being a "vorvolaka," or a kind of vampire. Directed by Mark Robson, it's probably the most uneven of all the Val Lewton horror films, but it also contains a few genuine scares.
