"If murder victims could return to the world of the living, chances are that tops on their To-Do lists would be visiting family members, wiping away tears of grief, and assuring them that the End is just the Beginning. All very uplifting. But spooks with these priorities are poor candidates for top spots in horror movies. We chiller fans prefer that “the restless dead” get right down to business and have a face-off with their killers.
Bert I. Gordon may have raised an eyebrow or two in 1959 when he announced his next picture, Tormented. The first curious thing about it was that, by making a ghost picture, the indie writer-producer-director was setting aside the giant people/giant monsters formula that had served him well for his entire directing career to date. The other oddity was that the ghost in Gordon’s tale was going to be that of a woman, sexy nightclub thrush Vi Mason. Not only that, the ghost meant to give viewers icy chills was smokin’ hot."
