Yes, it's a shame that Christopher Lee isn't in the film more - but it still has interesting characters, and I appreciate the angle about the three characters who outwardly portray themselves as decent and moral religious gentlemen, but their self-righteousness hides their double lives, involving a secret interest in embracing cheap thrills and hedonism.


Even though Christopher Lee isn't in it much, it's still my favorite Hammer film. Alice's father made me want to jump through the TV screen and bludgeon him.
