The Curse of the Werewolf
1961 · TMDB 6.5
Directed by Terence Fisher
A child conceived by a mute servant girl transforms from an innocent youth to a killer beast at night with uncontrollable urges.
Why it matters
Hammer's first and only werewolf film, starring Oliver Reed as a man born under a curse, with tragic roots in rape and violence. A more explicit and tragic take on the myth.
