The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake (1959)

Good Horror Story


This one was a fun watch. Lots of horror eye candy from floating skulls, decapitation, voodoo, shrunken heads, head in a pot, a madman and all with a unique story to tell. One of the better horror films of the late 1950s - and it's graphic for the time era. I really enjoyed this one.

This is the story of Jonathan Drake and South American Jivaro Indians. Jonathan went to his brother's funeral and was told his brother died of natural causes but when he noticed a closed casket that aroused his suspensions. Jonathan insisted the coffin lid to be opened, when the lid was opened he saw his his brother's head was decapitated - that's when he knew that the curse of the Jivaro Indians was still upon his family. He must put an end to it - he knows he will be the next victim.

Really a fun watch. Recommended to those that enjoy these types of films.

8.5/10
