Not one of Spencer Tracy's best
10 May 2000
Spencer Tracy is arguably the greatest actor of all time, but this movie was directed all wrong for him. The "monster" make-up detracts from, instead of adds to, the horror. Tracy would have done a much better job scaring us if he had been able to just use his amazing acting skills. I think he felt uncomfortable in the make-up; hence, the performance is well below his high standards. Ingrid Bergman is the best part of this movie; she really does a great job as the poor abused woman. Not a horrible movie altogether, but it could have been so much better.
