My husband had seen bits & pieces of it, but this was the first time he had seen it from start to finish. He was struck by how eerie it was. We attribute that to Karloff's acting, but also two the fact that they didn't go overboard with the special effects.
My wife and I got about 20 minutes into this before my wife got pissed and walked out of the room. She really wants to be a "believer", but this didn't help. I never did drink the Bigfoot KoolAid. https://www.discoveringbigfoot.org/discovering-bigfoot
This silent picture from 1927 was shown in a restored local theatre that dates from the same era. The film was accompanied on the original Werlitzer organ in the theatre. The organist mostly played moody background music appropriate for the spooky movie, but there were also some sound effects that made the audience giggle. Altogether a fun night!
