Apparently Mill of the Stone Women was the first Italian horror movie to be released in colour and it certainly looks nice. Lashings of Gothic horror and once it gets going very atmospheric, the only problems for me is that it is a bit slow, at first anyway, and the English version suffers from the usual bad dubbing. Part of the plot reminded me of Mystery of the Wax Museum, why spend time sculpting statues when you can simply uses real corpses? The scenes featuring the wax figures, which move along a track, accompanied by music, is the highlight of the movie, worth watching for that alone. Had the version I watched been of better quality then I may have been more generous with my score. Well worth checking out if you are a fan of Euro horror.
