One of the best pictures to come out of the PRC production mill, 'Bluebeard' is a horror film that should be able to bring good returns as the top film on neighborhood duals. Locale is Paris in the 19th century. John Carradine gives an excellent portrayal of an artist with an uncontrollable desire to strangle his models after he has painted their portraits. Jean Parker, as one of the models, gives one of her better performances in bringing the killer to justice. Others who help make this chiller topflight are Nils Asther as a member of the French Suerete, and Ludwig Stossel, as an art dealer. Production has some expensive settings and pretty costumes. (Variety, January 31, 1945) "John Carradine scores as a psychotic artist who strangles his models." Corel All Movie Guide 2
