Peter Cushing leads the cast of this rather dated science fiction horror about benign experiments getting out of hand. The whole film has a rather Dr Who feel about it especially when the monsters, the Silicates, are revealed and look like angry vacuum cleaners.
Cushing plays Dr Stanley a pathologist who is called to a Scottish island by the resident doctor , Landers ( Eddie Byrne ) after the discovery of a corpse without any bones. He brings along a younger doctor David West ( Edward Judd ) and they investigate the activities of a reclusive scientist on the other side of the island.
Carole Gray ( as Toni Merrill )
Sex : Toni's intended night of passion with Dr West is thwarted by the arrival of Stanley and Landers
Death : Survives
Carole brings a touch of glamour to the film but otherwise her role is superfluous to proceedings.
