Stanwyck is great, as always. She holds the film well. There's good claustrophobic, unhealthy gothic atmosphere Sinister goings on right under the same roof, and potentially aberrant science And a gothic romance comes in too, with creepy undertones.
There's a fairly small cast of charactery, mostly confined to a large mansion or manor house.
It's out in the country, essentially isolated from anyone else with enough wild surrounding to go for long horseback rides without seeing anyone.
I think the gothic atmosphere and tropes are as prevalent as the noir ones.
Stanwyck is charming throughout.
