Moderate Acceptance – Directed by Herk Harvey – More – Language English Español Svenska |
Carnival of Souls Carnival of Souls is a horror cult film released in 1962. Produced and directed by Herk Harvey for $33,000, the movie, which varies in length from 78 to 84 minutes depending on the edition, never gained widespread public attention when it was originally released, and today is still a very obscure film. The basic plot is a variation of the classic Ambrose Bierce short story An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge. Set to an organ score by Gene Moore and shot in a surrealistic style reminiscent of the work of Jean Cocteau, Carnival of Souls relies more on atmosphere than on special effects to create its mood of horror.
