Clive Barker's second screenplay concerned a bloodthirsty pagan deity let loose in rural Ireland. It starts slowly but quickly becomes violent and gory and could be recommended bar one fatal flaw. It shows too much of the monster which is quite obviously a big man in a rubber suit , more suited to 70s Dr Who than a big screen chiller.
Kelly Piper (as Elaine )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This was Kelly's final screen role.
Cora Lunny ( as Minty )
Sex : n/a
Death : Survives
Cora was born in Dublin and was barely four when she made this film. After one more TV appearance in 1987 ,she gave up acting for music and became one of Ireland's most accomplished violinists and has toured with Nigel Kennedy. She was tempted back into film in the noughties and made a handful of appearances but these days you're more likely to find her on the soundtrack.
Eleanor Feely ( as Jenny )
Sex : Jenny is pregnant
Death : Survives - the monster spares her for reasons never properly explained
This was Eleanor's only film role and she only made two subsequent TV appearances.
Maeve Germaine ( as Katrina)
Sex : Katrina's attemptts to make out with her boyfriend are constantly interrupted
Death : Survives
Maeve was active, mainly on TV, between 1983 and 1995
Bairbre Ni Choiamh ( as Laurie)
Sex : Laurie's breasts are exposed when the monster attacks her
Death : Uncertain- she is thrown against a tree but it's not clear if that kills her
Bairbre is an Irish actress, mainly on TV , whose career continues to this day.
