Black Sunday

Aka The Mask of Satan - 1961

Has anyone seen it? I heard quite a lot about it and that it was banned (and still is as far as I see on the net..)

You can get it for $44.50 from Amazon.

Is it worth it?

EDIT: I didn't purposely wait till Sunday to post this, my mate just reminded me of it... honest..

Yes, thats what they say..

I wanna know if anyone (a person) would recommend it for buying. Read all sorts of reviews, but looking to see your views on it before getting it then regretting it.

Thanks though.

I saw Black Sunday when it was released in 1961.Scared the crap out of me when I was nine years old, have not seen it since. Might suck now, some reviewers on IMDB said it was slow paced and boring.

Here's a review from IMDB you may consider before buying:
"And the appeal of this film is supposed to be what exactly? OK, the photography is beautiful, I'll give it that. But the acting, makeup, story, dialogue, score, and pacing are all terrible. This is one of the few movies I've turned off halfway through, due to the simple fact that I realized I did not give a hoot what happened next (I did finish watching it the next day). Steele is supposedly very attractive, but that's pretty subjective...she has a certain chipmunk look IMHO. I'd say this film is remarkable just for one thing -- it manages to look about 25 years out of date."
