Spain's leading
horror star,
Jacinto Molina (alias "
Paul Naschy") makes his seventh appearance as the cursed werewolf Waldemar Daninsky in this creepy entry from director
Carlos Aured. A prologue set during the Inquisition shows
Molina as a witch-hunter who is cursed by an evil Countess (
Patty Shepard) while she is burned alive. In the present day, a gypsy revives the curse after
Molina shoots a werewolf, leading a pretty girl (
Maritza Olivares) to seduce him and pass on the disease of lycanthropy by scarring his chest with a wolf's skull. The curse continues even after Daninsky is done in by his sweetheart (
Fabiola Falcon), for she births a child in the sequel-bait conclusion.
Jose Manuel Martin,
Maria Silva, and
Eduardo Calvo co-star.
Molina returned as the werewolf in the delirious
La Maldicion de la Bestia (1975).
