''Carnival of Souls'' (1962)

By Crusader1307

A unique and bizarre film from 1962 – ''Carnival of Souls'' is among the first of the independently made Horror films, which (while a ''B''-Film''), was worthy of a Rod Serling ''Twilight Zone'' Episode. Black and White and devoid of any known Stars, the film captures the nuances of ''nightmare dream sequences'' to great effect. A Cult following of many years and several remakes – do nothing to capture the still excellent quality of the 1962 original. Centering around a woman who survives a car accident, She has no recollection as to ''how She survived'' or even ended up in a small Town She has never been to. ''Shadowed'' by a ghoulish figure known as ''The Man'' and the appearances of pale, phantom-like figures only the Woman can see, the films ends with a great ''shock point'' that, despite the at sometimes ''quirky acting'' is well worth the wait. Available on all Mediums today, ''Carnival of Souls'' is a must see!
