Review of The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) by Trey L — 08 Nov 2009
Oliver Reed is fantastic in his role as the victim. He is simply born a werewolf, not bitten or scratched. As he tries to find true happiness to cure his affliction, fate would not let him and it ends on a tragic note.
The make-up and filming in Spain make it a bit different. It also takes a while to get started before the introduction of the adult protagonist.
I noticed that the style of the new Wolfman film resembles this film. The suit with ruffles, Benicio looking like Reed and a few other details.
A fine werewolf film from Hammer.
