Rating:  - THIS FILM MUST DIE
THE BEST PART OF THIS FILM WAS...THE END, BECAUSE, THANKFULLY, THIS MINDLESS, UNIMAGINABLE EXCUSE FOR A FILM CAME TO A MUCH DESERVED...END. POOR PETER CUSHING, HOW HE GOT ROPED INTO APPEARING IN THIS FILM, EVEN IN A MINOR ROLE, IS BEYOND ME. THIS FILM WAS LIKE, McMILLIAN AND WIFE MEETS BLACULA MEETS GERALDO RIVERA AT THE WILLOWBROOK MENTAL INSTITUTION ON STATEN ISLAND, BAD!!!!!!!! IF YOU WANT TO TORTURE SOMEONE, MAKE THEM WATCH THIS FILM. LIFE IS WAY TOO SHORT TO WASTE YOUR TIME WITH LOUSY FLICKS ... Read More
Rating:  - Peter Cushing
This is a great mystery. It will leave you wandering what happened until the very end.
Rating: - Pretty awful!
I'm a huge Peter Cushing fan but even HE couldn't pull this one out of the old excusado.
If you're going to make a campy, spoofy film like this one, you pretty much need to stick to the stereotypical expectations of the potential viewers. Here, the producers/director seized upon every bizarre element that they could latch on to.
I was looking for the macho, loud-mouthed Brit in khakis and an Aussie hat as the host and Big Game hunter -- nope. It turned out to be a cultured ... Read More
Rating: - It's not over 'till ya pull that trigger boy
This is a landmark movie for a number of reasons;
1. It is the WORST werewolf movie of all time
2. It is the WORST Amicus movie of all time
3. Its is the WORST film Peter Cushing ever made- although he is still good in it.
Amicus have produced some great genre pictures throughout the 60's and 70's. The House the Dripped Blood and City of the Dead are two of my personal favorites. In their hayday Amicus made brilliant films under the direction of many of Englands finest ... Read More
Rating:  - Loved Peter Cushing . . .
but hated this movie. What a silly premise - a big game hunter getting together people who happened to be in the vicinity of mutilation attacks on humans - and then he tells them that one of them is a werewolf and that he's going to kill it!!!??? Then, one by one each guest is systematically killed. The movie could have ended 1 hour earlier (I think it's 1 hour 30 minutes long), and had the same, tiring outcome. Very monotonous, and tedious. I wouldn't recommend it.
