Musings!


Lady Iolanthe Rogliano (Betta St. John) introduces Pietro Donati (Ricardo Montalban) to Elaine of Siniscola (Carolyn Jones) in THE SARACEN BLADE (1954)

This is a fun small movie directed by William Castle. The script is surprisingly fun.  I wish there was a clear, uncut version of this, in HD, of course. This old 'B movies' from Columbia Pictures often get a bad treatment, even with such a good cast and a known director. The movie did have some obvious budget shortcomings. The big battle scenes are stock footage. But overall, I like this one. It's entertaining. 
I have it uploaded to one of my Youtube channels.
