    • Quotes

      Melchisidech, the Cabalist: [Regarding the Stranger's magic spells] Now, as I see it, he hasn't had time to work in sevens, so it must be in threes.

      Parson: Ah, the Blessed Trinity.

      Melchisidech, the Cabalist: Trinity, schminity. This is none of your Christian schmatte. This is your kosher Yiddishe magic.

    Watchable British stinker.
    Julia(Marguerite Hardiman)accidentally releases a stranger(Mike Raven)from the depths of hell with a drop of her blood.The stranger is cursed to supply his master Satan with the blood of virgins until he can find a maiden to spend eternity with him.Using Julia's blood to control her the stranger plans to make her his eternal bride,unless her boyfriend Ralph(Stephen Bradley)can stop him and free Julia."Disciple of Death" is extremely cheap horror movie with inept special effects and amateurish acting.Some scenes resemble much better Tigon's horror classic "Blood on Satan's Claw".Still I had fun watching this cheesy piece of trash and I can't wait to check out the other Mike Raven's vehicle "Crucible of Terror".6 out of 10.
