It was such a treat to see Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi on film together. The production design was pretty cool as well. Aside from that I had difficulty enjoying the film itself. It has a lot of problems but also is such a seminal film in both the horror genre and the history of film score as atmosphere. I bet all of the satanic overtones and plot points would have been more disturbing and horrifying to people in 1934, but today it is hard to really become invested in what is happening or to try to make sense of it all. I would have loved to see a remake of this with Christopher Lee in the Lugosi role due to his war experiences.
