Black Moon1934
“Love battling against the sorcery of the jungle!”
Directed by Roy William Neill
The premise
A woman returning to her island birthplace finds herself drawn to a voodoo cult.
Horror Vault's take
A woman's return to her Caribbean birthplace stirs something dark within her as the rhythms and rituals of a voodoo cult begin to exert an irresistible hold over her mind and spirit. Her husband and those closest to her watch helplessly as she slips further from the world they know. This pre-Code Columbia picture blends tropical atmosphere with genuine menace, drawing on the era's fascination with voodoo as a source of psychological and supernatural dread.
