Young woman raised by gypsies is actually daughter of a werewolf. She starts killing those who know about her.
I couldn't agree more with those who called this a turkey. The running time is just over 60 minutes but it feels like 3 hours. Slow, turgid crime drama with a supposed horror element is what you get. Nina Foch plays the gypsy girl who turns into a werewolf, but in reality she turns into a regular wolf, an entirely different animal. Even "She Wolf of London" is better than this, and that one is no epic either. Stephen Crane is an awful actor; a lousy romantic lead. The gypsy queen comes off best, but still she's hardly Maria Ospenskya. The other Columbia entry into horror, "Return of The Vampire" proved that not every movie studio was up to doing horror films well. At least that one had a good demise of the vampire at the end. Best stick with Universal horror films of the era.
