Review of The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) by Georgios L — 13 Dec 2010
One of the many truly classic horror movies released by the great English studio, Hammer Films--a breakthrough role for then up-and-comer Oliver Reed as Leon, the misfortunate recipient of the well-worn "Curse of the Full Moon" chestnut, transforming him into a burly, blonde & bushy, bloody-lipped moon-bayer with a severe misanthropic attitude who enjoys making Alpo out of the clueless residents of a small Spanish Town.
As usual, Hammer makes the most of a limited budget, & the production values are opulent, & Reed gives a great performance as the tortured Leon.
