32 Days of Halloween Part VIII, Movie Night No. 22: The Beast Must Die!

Beast Must Die

As Day 22 is Peter Cushing Day, that means it’s time for the 1974 werewolf film from Amicus: The Beast Must Die. Like a lot of genre films, a very rich individual invites a bunch of people over to his place to hang out…but he has a hidden agenda. The film comes complete with the gimmick of “The Werewolf Break,” a pause in which you have a chance to reflect and decide who in the film is the werewolf, since that’s the mystery at hand. (Although I think other films might do well with a “Werewolf Break,” like Pearl Harbor or Cars 2.) Alongside Cushing, other suspects include Michael Gambon and Charles Gray (Rocky Horror). Good luck in your detective work…

The film is available for free streaming from Amazon Instant Video if you’re on Prime. It’s also available on DVD.
