It was 34°C.
The suspense sequence where Carrefour approaches the plantation with Frances Dee in the garden is pure Tourneur.
Writers Ardel Wray and Curt Siodmak researched voodoo deeply. Sir Lancelot helped them find genuine voodoo musicians, and that calypso he sings was his own composition. The art direction by Albert D'Agostino and Walter Kelly is inspired.
According to Joel E Siegel's book, because of the title, hardly anyone went to see it.
