This is second only to the wonderful original starring Lon Chaney, Jr. twenty years earlier. Oliver Reed brings a more pronounced character to the ravenous tippy toed terror of the night. This is a top notch project from director Terence Fisher and one of the best from Hammer Studios.
Rounding out the play bill are Clifford Evans, Yvonne Romain, Hira Talfrey and Michael Ripper.
