This is my first Joan Crawford film. I really enjoyed William Castle's House on haunted hill, so gave this a go. I really enjoyed it, the story, performances and the practical effects were decent for the times. Lucy Harbin returns home to find her husband on bed with another woman. She grabs an ax and pulls a Lizzy Borden, love the little rhyme. Harbin does 20 yrs in an asylum, then released. Upon her return people start getting decapitated again. A particularly well done scene in the freezer barn. There is a good twist to the story mid way, I think I will look for more of these classics. A 5/5. Going to give "I saw what you did" a go next.
