Carnival of Souls
The first Saltair Resort (top), built in 1893, burned in 1925. Rebuilt in 1926, it was used by Herk Harvey for Carnival of Souls location scenes. At bottom is the third Saltair Palace (1983) in a 2005 photo by Bill Pratt.
AMC just launched BMC (for "B Movie Classics"), a new online portal for viewing full-length B movies (27 titles available) with a full-screen player powered by Brightcove. If you've never seen Candace Hilligoss in Herk Harvey's classic Carnival of Souls, this is your chance. Why see the forgettable, regrettable 1998 film with same title (and different story) when the 1962 original is right here? And Candace explains how she was betrayed in a souless carnival of former colleagues. However, to see it full screen, you have to go to BMC.
