Eric Gorman returns with his wife Evelyn from a trip to the Orient collecting zoo animals, having killed a member of his expedition who happened one day to kiss Mrs. Gorman. On board ship Evelyn meets Roger Hewitt, who falls in love with her. After delivering his animals to the zoo, Gorman plots a way to dispose of Hewitt using one of his latest specimens, then continues using the zoo's non-human residents to do his beastly work.
其实是没有什么悬疑的观众从一开始就知道了凶手是谁,这点似乎和后来的黑色电影有相似的地方,但是对人物内心的挖掘却几乎是零这点又完全不同于后来的黑色电影。。。对于观众来说与其说是看兰道夫.斯科特如何找出凶手还不如说是看那些光怪陆离(凶残)的死人场面,这些场面在之后的恐怖片和惊悚片中也是屡屡出现,如果单从这个角度看的话这部电影确实有他特别的地方。。。ps动物园和游乐场真正是人间“噩梦”。。。
《名侦探柯南:动物园蛇毒连环杀人事件》 Pre-code时期犯罪片,尽管有些尺度,但价值观依旧是保守的“善恶有报”。由于杀人的都是动物,某种程度上可以算是最早期的Natural系恐怖片了吧?
