209 Captain Clegg ( 1962 )


This  little-known  Hammer  movie  is  more  of  an  historical  adventure  yarn  than  a  horror  film   with  more  violence  than  shocks  but  it's  got  a  good  plot and  an  impressive  cast  headed  by  Peter  Cushing. It  was  released  as  Night  Creatures in  the  US

Captain  Collier  ( Patrick  Allen )  leads  a  party  of   government  men  to  a  small  village  on  Romney  Marshes  which  is  suspected  of  large  scale  smuggling. The  village  is  also  the  burial  place  of  a  notorious  pirate  Captain  Clegg  and  there  is  a  legend  of  ghostly  horsemen  roaming  the  marshes  at  night . These  narrative  strands  are  brought  together  in  entertaining  fashion.

Yvonne  Romain  ( as  Imogene )

Sex :  Imogene's  nipples  are  clearly  visible  just  before  her  guardian  tries  to  rape  her

Death : Survives


Yvonne  was  Oliver  Reed's  mum  in  Curse  of  the  Werewolf; here, she's  his  girlfriend.
