5.0 out of 5 starsThe Awful Dr. Orlof - DVD Review
By D. Holt on July 7, 2000
Format: DVD
STORY: When beautiful music hall entertainers begin to disappear under mysterious circumstances, Inspector Tanner is summoned to investigate. His resourceful fiancée decides to help him by attracting the attention of the diabolical Dr. Orlof -- who, with his blind henchman, Morpho, is using the skin of slain women to restore the beauty of his disfigured sister, Melissa!
PICTURE: 4/5 Image has given Jess Franco's "The Awful Dr. Orlof" a nice looking transfer at 1.66:1. The picture is sharp and blacks look good and solid, but in some scenes the blacks look a little on the gray side. I saw 3 vertical lines on the print and i did not notice any film grain. To spite a couple of flaws on the print, I think the picture looks the best the film will ever look.
SOUND: 3/5 The sound is 1.0 Mono English and French. The english track sounds good and clear, but i heard a couple of pops and the track distorts sometime when the music comes on. Overall, not a bad sounding track for a 26 year old film.
EXTRAS: 2/5 This is where the disc is a let down. You get not thing. But you do get some great liner notes from Tim Lucas.
OVERALL: 4/5 IMO, The Awful Dr. Orlof is a classic! If you like the old gothic films of Hammer, Mario Bava and Universal, then you should like The Awful Dr. Orlof. Even though this disc does not have any extras, it's still worth the buy to see this cool film.

4.0 out of 5 starsCREEPY "MORTHO" LIVES...On Dvd
By Hugo on January 11, 2003
Format: DVD
When I was a boy they would show this movie very late saturday nights on TV and I'd stay up way past bedtime just to watch Gothic Horror Euro-movies like this and BLACK SUNDAY(a.k.a. "The Mask Of Satan")which terrified and scared me to death. I grew up, but I never forgot those two, amongst several other OLD gothic horror flicks I've been lucky to find on Dvd these past couple years. I always thought the terrifying "Mortho" was a vampire! All I know and have never been able to forget is that I was Mortho-fied with fear and terror at the site of him. I'd be so terrified laying in bed when the lights were out because I feared seeing his face on the ceiling if I opened my eyes. He still seems quite creepy after all these years. This movie is a CLASSIC of its genre and a 'must have' for collectors. It is a gem of a remaster in classic B&W, mostly filmed at night(it seems), nevertheless, it's a well made atmospheric movie. More of a "thriller" than a "horror" flick. Nice to have just for the memories of loving scary movies as a child...

4.0 out of 5 starsImportant Franco film...
By G. Edmonson on February 13, 2016
Format: Blu-ray
"The Awful Dr. Orlof"(1962) is directed by Jess Franco. This film is about a doctor (Howard Vernon) who uses the skin of women in order to graft onto the disfigured face of his daughter. The beautiful Diana Lorys also stars in this film. This movie was a turning point for Jess Franco who had never before directed a horror film. And this only came about because a political film he originally wanted to film was not allowed by the Spanish censors. After watching "Daughters of Dracula" with his producers he convinced them to finance a horror film which would be loosely based on a Boris Karloff, or Frankenstein film. Evidently this film was highly experimental and daring for its time given the staccato Jazz score, to the particular fluidity and use of concise static shots that Franco employed, to the scalpel scene seen in this French version (some sequences from the altered Spanish version are shown in the special features). This is certainly an interesting film to see given what Franco was later to move towards. This is a medium budget film, but with A class actors and production and is easily one of Franco's best, and most successful films overall. If it has any faults it is with a rather abrupt ending and some editing issues. Otherwise this film has a wonderfully ominous atmosphere and is marvellously directed. Jess Franco was also a musician, who knew well the cabaret scene before he became a director of film, and this shows in this movie.

This blu-ray doesn't appear to be restored at all, and dust appears on the image, however, after a while I didn't find this particularly distracting. There are some interesting special features, including a 16 minute interview with Jess Franco as he discusses this film many years later, and an informative (18 min) "making of" documentary of the film. There is also an audio commentary that accompanies this film with Tim Lucas.

4.0 out of 5 starsThe Awful Dr. Orlof (Redemption Remastered Edition)
By Celia Trimboli on April 18, 2015
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Pretty good early 60's Spanish-French made (with English dubbing) horror film. A mad doctor is kidnapping and dispatching beautiful young women so he can restore his comatose daughter's looks. He uses his blind brother to obtain the girls. Now that's a feat. A blind, insane brother with a tacked on face to do the muscle work. Well, I guess you work with what you have. The cops, typically in a film like this, just fumble around. The atmosphere is gothic and atmospheric. I bought the recently released Redemption DVD and the quality and extras are very good. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 starsGRAND OLD EUROSHOCKER.....
By Mark Norvell on October 29, 2002
Format: DVD
I love this movie. Awful acting and all. There's atmosphere to spare and a morbid story that moves. A mad surgeon uses his disfigured mind-controlled "slave"---Morpho---to kidnap women to use in fiendish skin graft experiments to restore the ruined face of his beloved daughter. Set at the turn-of-the-century, his laboratory is the basement of an old castle surrounded by a moat. In this European version, there's a few [breast]shots here and there. But it's the delirium of the entire movie that keeps me going. Hysterically awful at times but so lovable as a relic of a bygone genre that I have to rate it high. The music is a cacophonus clanging that just adds to the lurid aura of Morpho stalking the women as his "master" waits nearby. Delicious b&w photography is preserved wonderfully on DVD. Jess Franco was noted for his sexy shockers but this is my favorite of them all. Dubbing is bad and this works just fine as well in making this a true-blue "Euroshocker" that to me defines itself.
