Werewolf Shadow

Paul Naschy, a horror star on the order of Christopher Lee in his native Spain, stars once again in this movie as Waldemar Daninsky, a nobleman cursed for eternity with the mark of the werewolf. Here, Naschy rescues two young women doing research on the legend of a powerful witch and supposed vampire known as the Countess Wandessa. Unfortunately, their studies awaken the Countess, who is far more powerful than the girls could have imagined. Imbued with all the trademarks of Naschy's werewolf films such as gratuitous nudity, gore, and a palpable gothic atmosphere, WEREWOLF SHADOW is an excellent early 1970s monster movie.
