Hammer starting to decline
25 November 2021
By the 70s hammer's great atmospheric horror and thriller movies were starting to lose some of their luster. Not all of them mind you. But this one is one of those that illustrates the decay. The ending leaves some loose ends and doesn't satisfy. Even the presence of Peter Cushing and Joan Collins can't really transform this one in a winner. The plot is good but the interpretation is unconvincing and the film fails to create the classic "ambiance" of earlier heammer classics. Still very much watchable for hammer fans though. But shouldn't be too high on a watching priority list.
