Isle of the dead
Many of these films use the island as only locations. It appears, in fact, difficult to believe that an island, so evocative and fascinating, can be used as a place of horror and fear. However, its nature is transformed, showing also available as a place of horror. During the period of the film in '45, Boris Karloff watched many Ischians and told the press. "I am in Ischia to make a good movie and are oxygenated by this island so full of sun warmth. It 's really hard-working the population of Ischia. It has been a great experience to come to this island. In a break from work, I took the opportunity to met Boris Karloff, a friendly and very human man, very different from those terrifying roles had in the movies. Karloff loved the sea, seeing the crafts isle and watching the fishermen at work. He was really a gentleman".
MMany scenes in this movie were filmed along the homes of Corso Vittoria Colonna and in the pine forest of Ischia Ponte.
