Description

An animated version of Gaston Leroux's everlasting tale of "The Phantom of the Opera". Christine has been acting strange the last few days: she, first of all, got the lead part on a new opera and she's arrogant with people. A masked Phantom lurking in the shadows is haunting her, keeping her away from other men, striking revenge on the world above, but he also has a good side, a side that was tortured since childhood.

    Entertaining rendition with nice performances from Herbert Lom and to some extent Heather Sears, plus seeing Michael Gough playing such a scoundrel was new to me as only really knew him as Alfred... The music is fine and all in all, was a solid film, nothing terribly memorable however. **3.5/5**

    This Hammer adaptation of the Gaston Leroux standard is much less a horror film; more just a story about love and betrayal. Aside from Michael Gough as the devious and loathsome "Lord Ambrose d'Arcy" the casting isn't up to very much, even Herbert Lom doesn't really seem to get into the swing of it. What is does have to distinguish it from other versions is it's own score to "Joan of Arc" and some lovely arias from Patricia Clark. The ending is rather better, too.
