The characters and plot convolutions of the classic silent French serial Judex are thrust into a 1960s framework in this Georges Franju concoction. Channing Pollock plays a mysterious masked avenger who kidnaps evil-banker Michel Vitold, then sets about to turn the banker's friends and loved ones against him. At first appearing to be as wicked as his captive, Pollock is actually motivated by familial love: his father had been driven to suicide by Vitold. Pollock is successful in destroying his enemy, adding spice to the program by wedding Vitold's daughter Edith Scob. In keeping with the spirit of the original serial, Pollock pops in and out of the plotline decked out in impenetrable disguises. As with his earlier horror film Eyes without a Face (1960), director Franju invests his two-dimensional material in Judex with three-dimensional characters. -- Hal Erickson

This was originally posted by darknessatnoon on the old DV, from what I could perveice from what I remenber of what he said, this was 'ripped' from 16mm to VHS and then he converted, so this has no image treatment no color correction, so the image tends to get dark at times, really dark, but in my opinion, only gives a more eerie ambient to the film
after all a remake of Feuillade's Judex must be an eerie, nocturnal aproach I guess. Either ways enjoy this rare film, hope to see you in my queue. It has english subs when one can see them 
I love you all!!
