An iconic gothic horror and one of Hammer's finest masterpieces: BAFTA-Award nominee Oliver Reed stars as a man with brutal and macabre beginnings - the title curse resulting in savage, violent behaviour during a full moon. The only relief from his murderous impulses comes from the love of Christina (Catherine Feller)... but he soon begins to fear that even this cannot contain the beast within. Directed by legendary horror filmmaker Terence Fisher and based on Guy Endore's 'The Werewolf of Paris', this haunting, stylish thriller set in 18th Century Spain is the epitome of the perfect werewolf tale.
