Oliver Reed portrays the bloodthirsty man-beast who loves by day and kills by night in the gripping gothic thriller Curse of the Werewolf. Directed by horror filmmaker Terence Fisher of Hammer Films, this atmospheric tale of terror follows Reed, the orphaned baby of a maniacal beggar and a mute girl, from birth to manhood, when he discovers his horrible secret. The cursed youth is unable to suppress the dark forces within and when the moon is full, he becomes an uncontrollable killer incapable of distinguishing between friend and foe. Spectacular makeup effects and beautifully photographed 19th Century European locales heighten the suspense of this classic werewolf story.
