Voodoo Island (1957)
5/10
Oh That's what happened to some of those folks on Pitcairn Island
26 October 2007
I woke up early this morning with a cold and fell back to sleep with the TV on I was awoken by sound of a theremin. Oh goody Boris Karloff and a hostile looking blond. Turns out someone want wants make a resort on this South Sea type Island and Karloff is some type of debunker of all things debunkable.

This movie turned out to be a pleasant surprise because it lived up to my so bad it is good expectations, because it has a little bit of everything in it. Unrequited Lesbian attraction, romance, man or should I say women eating plants, and even voodoo, not much but a few of dolls made in the likeness of the of people in Karloffs group that are checking out this Island to make a resort area. Seeing things, being scared to death to name a few.

I will not spoil the reason behind all of this and if it is real or if Karloff debunks the existence of Voodoo. I will say amongst all of the mayhem we get a history mystery solved. Where did some of those folks who got sick of Pitcairn Island go. Toward the end of the movie the chief who is a white man dressed up in native garb explains we have been searching from island to island looking for a place that we can be happy. Well they found it and it is called Voodoo Island.

I say if you are a collector of so bad it is good type movies, collect this. If just to see a giant plant eat a little girl. You don't get to see that happening too much in movies.
