the gauziest, maybe the most influential, surely the most underestimated, Lewton production.

Reviews for The Seventh Victim
Perhaps producer Val Lewton's most personal film, and certainly one of his greatest.
What other movie opens with Satanism in Greenwich Village, twists into urban paranoia, and climaxes with a suicide?
It is clear that the film was designed to appeal to an intelligent film-going crowd out for a thrill as well as those just looking to get the bejeezus scared out of them.
It's a very well-made psychological thriller (before such a term even existed) filled with good performances.
This is the greatest of producer Val Lewton's justly celebrated low-budget chillers.
