Dorian Gray1970
“He is twenty-one. He has been twenty-one for almost half a century”
Directed by Massimo Dallamano
The premise
London, England. Dorian Gray is a young man who somehow keeps his beauty eternally, while a mysterious portrait of himself gradually reveals his moral decay.
Horror Vault's take
Set against the hedonistic backdrop of swinging London, this 1970 adaptation of Oscar Wilde's timeless tale follows the impossibly beautiful Dorian Gray as he remains perpetually young while those around him age and suffer. A mysterious portrait locked away from prying eyes holds a dark secret tied to his uncanny preservation. As Dorian indulges every excess and cruelty, the gap between his radiant exterior and his true nature grows ever more horrifying. This continental European production brings a bold, sensual energy to one of horror's most enduring cautionary fables.
