A monumental example of what a filmmaker can create - and simply accomplish - with no money and actors who cannot act. I love this flim because it thrives on European influences (Bergman, Antonioni, Resnais), imaginative vision and understands the significance of mood - which helped create a spellbinding atmosphere. All film students - and anybody even remotely interested in film - should be required to watch this classic low-budget film.

Wikipedia
Carnival of Souls is a low budget 1962 horror film starring Candace Hilligoss. Produced and directed by Herk Harvey for an estimated $33,000, the movie did not gain widespread attention when it was originally released, as a B film; today, however, it is a cult classic. Set to an organ score by Gene Moore, Carnival of Souls relies more on atmosphere than on special effects to create its mood of horror. The film has a large cult following and is occasionally screened at film and Halloween festivals.
