the blood beast terror (1968)

AKA Blood Beast from Hell. The Deathshead Vampire. The Vampire-Beast Craves Blood.
"What are we going to tell 'em? They'll never believe this at the yard."
Detective Quennell (Peter Cushing) is investigating the mysterious death of a young student and approaches Dr. Carl Mallinger (Robert Flemyng), the students tutor to help. Unfortunately Mallinger knows more about the death than he's letting on, and how is his daughter Clare (Wanda Ventham) involved?

Another Hammeresque Victorian horror, which despite its fine cast, doesn't live up to the billing. Mildly diverting but nothing more than that.
