| PLOT SYNOPSIS for Criterion Collection: Carnival Of Souls:Spec.Ed |
|
| Mary Henry (Candace Hilligoss) survives a drag race in a rural Kansas town, then takes a job as a church organist in Salt Lake City. En route, she becomes haunted by a bizarre apparition that compels her to an abandoned lakeside pavillion. Herk Harvey's macabre masterpiece gained a cult following on late night television and has been bootlegged for years. Made by industrial filmmakers on a modest budget, 'Carnival of Souls' was intended to have the 'look of a Bergman' and 'feel of a Cocteau,' and succeeds with its strikingly-used locations and spooky organ score. Criterion is proud to finally present the ultimate 2-disc special edition of this eerily effective B-movie classic that continues to inspire filmmakers today. |
