A dandy twist on the old dark house films.
23 September 2018
"You can't convict a man of murder if you can't find the body"--from the film...and certainly NOT true!

In the 1930s and 40s, Hollywood made a ton of scary old house movies. They always involved some folks getting stuck in some home as a maniac slowly begins picking them off...one by one. "The Girl Who Dared" is one of these films...but it's also a bit better.

In this film, a group of people are invited to a mansion...but when they arrive the homeowner says he didn't invite them. Soon, a body turns up...and then another. And, naturally, the phones have been cut and their cars vandalized so they cannot escape!

The reason I liked this one is the ending...it was a clever way to catch the killer and their motivation was interesting. A decent time-passer.
