      Chantal: Did you kill them?

      Paul Carver: That's a pretty brutal question to ask, don't you think?

      Chantal: Life's a brutal business. Belsen, Hiroshima... they say the good's getting better, but that could mean the bad is getting worse, too.

    Poor British horror thriller

    One of my sci-fi/horror/fantasy reviews written 50 years ago: Directed by Frederic Goode; Produced by Harry Field for England's Associated British-Pathe; released in America by American-International Pictures TV. (British title: "The Hand of Night"). Screenplay by Bruce Stewart; Photography by William Jordan; Edited by Frederick Ives; Music by Joan & John Shakespeare. Starring: William Sylvester, Diane Clare, Aliza Gur, Edward Underdown, William Dexter and Terence De Marney.

    Pretentious melange of horror cliches in a format of Sylvester's nightmares mixed with a mummy-type vampire premise. Interesting photography and stagings do not overcome the amateurism here, in glorious Technicolor.
