A classic, vintage horror, another classic from Hammer Horror.
Expect the usual Hammer attributes, terror, shock, scares, and a lot of mesmerism. It doesn't stint on the terror factor here, even now it packs a punch, with some sinister concepts.
It looks incredible, it's so well shot, with gorgeous sets and costumes, it is very well produced.
Of course Christopher Lee is the headline, and as always he doesn't disappoint, but he is well supported, Charles Gray is terrific, it's all about the eyes, great also to see Paul Eddington.
It's one of those films that time has been very kind to, it simply doesn't date.
Excellent, 8/10.
