Bluebeard (1901)
aka Barbe-bleue
** 1/2 (out of 4)
An interesting if not totally successful film from Georges Melies. After seven wives have mysterious died, Bluebeard holds a contest to pick his eighth wife. Things are going as planned until the ghosts of the seven previous wives show up. This here is certainly a horror film from start to finish but it's a shame the film gets off to such a weak start. The ending, with the wives returning, is very well done.
In early 2008 a box set with over 170 Meiles films will be released and it's certainly long overdue.
