Edgar G. Ulmer's
John Carradine delivers the strongest performance of his career in this taut, suspenseful version of the Bluebeard legend. Carradine is the nefarious Gaston, an artist and puppeteer in 19th century Paris who strangles lovely young models when they fail to meet his exacting standards of perfection. Gaston's new model, Lucille, learns of his shocking secret and bravely vows to bring him to justice. This beautifully executed thriller is directed by Edgar G. Ulmer who sustains a steady level of suspense throughout the film and inspires masterful performances from the entire cast.
