Alice Terry is magnificent
The formidable combination of director Rex Ingram, author Somerset Maugham, Ivan Petrovich with Alice Terry and Paul Wegener gave this horror film a distinction of having several international stars. But the script contains occult practices, hypnotism, a spinal operation, and a sinister experiment at a Monte Carlo tower which would have suited a horror specialist better than it did for director Ingram. Nevertheless the star of the film, Alice Terry shines as a woman whose real love is for the surgeon who saved her life (Petrovich), and finally gets saved from the sinister hypnotist played Paul Wegener.
