About The Man Who Turned to Stone
A new social worker at a girls' reformatory discovers that her charges are being used by a group of ancient alchemists, who have insinuated themselves as the prison's chief staffers, to keep themselves alive and free from an insidious petrification, which is already afflicting one of their number.
Directed by László Kardos, The Man Who Turned to Stone leans on a strong ensemble — Victor Jory, William Hudson, Charlotte Austin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1957.
