Eccentric characters, a foreboding house, and Karloff...
“The Old Dark House,&#34; based on the J.B. Priestley novel “Benighted,” was directed by James Whale between his “Frankenstein” and “Bride of Frankenstein.” Though technically considered a horror film, the movie contains eccentric characters and is infused with touches of dark humor. A terrible storm and a washed-out road bring a group of travelers to a forbidding home in the Welsh countryside, where they find themselves the unwelcome guests of the Femm family — Horace (Ernest Thesiger, “Bride of Frankenstein”), his sister Rebecca (Eva Moore), the elderly Sir Roderick (Elspeth Dudgeon), and the odd Saul (Brember Wills). Prowling around is their mute butler Morgan (Boris Karloff), a scarred lumbering presence, who gets violent when he’s drunk<br /><br />The visitors consist of Philip and Margaret Waverton (Raymond Massey, Gloria Stuart), World War I veteran Penderel (Melvyn Douglas, “Ninotchka”), the loud Sir William Porterhouse (Charles Laughton in his first Hollywood film), and his companion Gladys (Lillian Bond, “The Picture of Dorian Gray”).<br /><br />The movie is the prototype for the many “old dark house” horror films that followed. The visitors to the Femm house are virtually trapped as the peculiarities of the Femms give way to real danger as Morgan attacks Mrs. Waverton, one of the Femms turns out to be a maniac, and lives become endangered. Director Whale devotes considerable time in establishing the characters of Horace and Rebecca, who constantly bicker. After Horace picks up a bunch of flowers, he tosses them in the fireplace, stating “My sister was in the process of arranging these.” Rebecca, a religious zealot fond of pickled onions, is convinced that Horace’s sinful life will be his downfall and has an unsettling encounter with the attractive Mrs. Waverton.<br /><br />Ernest Thesiger, who has the look of a constipated funeral director, made a career of playing arrogant, quirky characters, and his Horace Femm is one of his best portrayals, contributing considerably to the movie’s odd atmosphere. Tall, supercilious, and old fashioned in his forced hospitality, his line, “Have a potato,” as he holds out a serving dish to his houseguests is both comical and touchingly cordial.<br /><br />As in “Frankenstein,” Karloff  doesn’t speak, simply uttering grunts as his Morgan makes his way around the house, dutifully looking after the Femms. Ms. Moore is perfectly unsavory as a bitter, nearly deaf woman who regards strangers as intruders. Laughton provides some lighter moments as the brash Porterhouse, and Douglas’ Penderel is ready with a quip or a funny observation.<br /><br />“The Old Dark House” offers an atypical horror experience. The movie is more about mood and suspense than about monsters and slashings. It’s finest achievement is its cast of unforgettable characters.<br /><br />Bonus materials on the unrated Blu-ray release include a new interview with Sara Karloff, Boris Karloff’s daughter; feature-length audio commentary track by Gloria Stuart; feature-length audio commentary track by James Whale biographer James Curtis; and 2017 re-release trailer.
