Carnival of Souls (1962)
Description
Mary and two of her friends are challenged by some men to a drag race. The car is forced off a bridge. All three women seemed to be drowned until Mary suprisingly emerges from the river with no memory of her survival. Mary accepts a new job as a church organist. But strange things start to happen and she becomes invisable.
"Carnival of Souls" (German: "Tanz der toten Seelen") is a 1962 independent horror film starring Candace Hilligoss. Produced and directed by Herk Harvey for an estimated $33,000, the film did not gain widespread attention when originally released, as a B film; today, however, it is a cult classic. Set to an organ score by Gene Moore, Carnival of Souls relies more on atmosphere than on special effects to create a mood of unease and foreboding. The film has a large cult following and is occasionally screened at film and Halloween festivals. It has been cited as an important influence on the films of both David Lynch and George A. Romero.
