358 The Beast Must Die ( 1974 )
This full length Amicus feature has an interesting cast with a pair of blaxploitation stars plus Nazi-imitator Anton Diffring joining the usual British thesps. It's not terribly scary but well acted and quite original.
Tom Newcliffe ( Calvin Lockhart ) is a millionaire big game hunter who wants to add a werewolf to his trophy cabinet. He invites a number of guests who he suspects may be lycanthropes ( on pretty slender evidence it must be said ) to his mansion and then announces they must pass a number of his "tests" , conveniently explained by Prof Lundgren ( Peter Cushing ) a lycanthropy expert, before they can leave.
Ciaran Madden ( as Davina )
Sex : Nice cleavage
Death : Survives
The Essex-born actress made few films but was active on stage and TV from the late sixties to the late nineties when she retired to concentrate on painting. She is now 75.
Marlene Clark ( as Caroline Newcliffe )
Sex : Great cleavage
Death : Shot by her husband after turning into a werewolf
Marlene's character provides the voice of sanity in the film.
