Richard W @rdwoolf Aug 28, 2025 If you are watching this because you think it is a Christopher Lee film, take note that he is only in the film for maybe 4-5 minutes. And even then, he is mostly lit in a way it makes it hard to tell its even him. This film feels like it is actually two different stories. That is because it kinda is. The original director made a film about a group of young teddy boy types are up to no good when they find a haunted castle that they have trouble getting out of. Later, the company that was distributing the film did not like what they received so they took the film away from the director and added a pre and post part to the film that is more like an Italian gangster movie than whatever the original plot was supposed to be. They also added a priest character to be the narrator of the original section of the film. To be honest, I would have preferred just watching whatever crime movie the film started off as instead of watching a group or people freak out for very little reason in an old castle.The combined films really didn't make much sense. This film is good to watch if you are a Christopher Lee completionist. It is interesting to see what was happening on the fringes of Italian cinema in the early sixties. But this is not a good film.
