Regardless of slight humour at times, this film is quite creepy overall!
I just watched the restored BFI version which was crisp. However, I had seen this thousands of times before but watched this last night and really felt like the film is creepy, which I hadn't picked up on before. I mean, the moody melancholic guitar music, the atmosphere in the cemetery and what they refer to as 'the seven witches', and seeing Tom's life flash before him in that mirror in that old room that looked like it would only appeal to Anton LeVey.
