Horror, Fantasy
In the early 20th century a village experienced a series of inexplicable murders. All the victims were young men who had been turned to stone. The perpetrator of these deaths was a being so repulsive that she transformed the onlooker using the power of her deadly stare. Much of the time the creature took the form of a beautiful and seductive woman, but during periods of the full moon she becomes a living horror, vicious and deadly. A professor has come to investigate the deaths, bringing with him his beautiful assistant whose knowledge of the Gorgon is more intimate than anyone would ever realise.

I always enjoy a Hammer film from the 60's! There is something about those films that I always enjoy! This time they use the Greek Mythology about Gorgons. I always thought they were called Madusa's! Anyway, we get kind of a mystery film with great performances. We also have our Hammer legends in Peter Cushing and Christoper Lee! It is always nice to see these two square off! Even if it is only for a few moments! Anyway, this one is also directed by Hammer legend Terence Fisher! This might not be his best work but still, you can see his hand clearly as this film is beautifully shot! And somehow I always enjoy those damn colors! Also ANGRY TOWNS PEOPLE! They show up a lot in Hammer films don't they? So yeah! You can't go wrong with this Hammer Horror film! If you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check it out! It will only take you 84 minutes! And I bet you'll enjoy it!

It's always a blast to watch Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee together, even if their screen time is limited. I didn't know what to expect while watching this, well other than not expecting to get creeped out, which actually happened when we get our first glimpse of the Gorgon lurking in the shadows of an old castle. The movie does crawl along but that's not out of the ordinary with Hammer films. The ending is far from surprising but that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with it. Christopher Lee is the highlight here.

Fun little hammer horror. Classic Monster movie thrills with Cushing and Lee. Good for a midnight movie.

This is mostly great Hammer stuff, but it plays a bit too much into the lame romance angle and not enough interaction between the professors or gorgon mythology.

One of Terence Fisher's most undervalued films.

"Overshadowing the village of Vandorf stands the Castle Borski. From the turn of the century a monster from an ancient age of history came to live here. No living thing survived and the spectre of death hovered in waiting for her next victim."

***Medusa’s sister is loose in post-Victorian Germany!***

The spirit of one of the three Gorgon sisters from Greek mythology is terrorizing a German village in the early 1900s. A doctor (Peter Cushing) seems to be in denial about the supernatural element of the mounting deaths in the last seven More
