Spettro, Lo (1963, ITA) C-97m. *** D: Robert Hampton (=Riccardo Freda). Starring Barbara Steele, Peter Baldwin, Leonard Elliott, Harriet Medin, Umbero Raho. Follow-up to L'ORRIBILE SEGRETO DEL DOTTOR HICHCOCK (1962), about crippled, suicidal doctor Elliott, whose wife Steele plots to kill him with the help of her lover Baldwin. However, the body does not stay dead for long. Atmospheric, moody Gothic chiller is slowly paced but consistently interesting, quite violent for its time, too. Good score and main theme by Francesco de Masi, Franco Mannino, Román Vlad. Cowritten by director Freda. English titles: THE GHOST, THE SPECTRE.
