Prioritize:
Bluebeard is a film that has aged a lot and it shows. Talking about horror is a bit problematic nowadays because such a film probably won't scare anyone anymore. One can admire the acting of the lead actor, as Carradine is simply good. One can also admire the black-and-white camera and the use of shadows. However, otherwise, the film is rather a mediocre spectacle that won't leave a lasting impression. You probably won't remember it for long. ()
