Kronos investigates with the help of his old comrade Dr Marcus (John Carson), but when he also falls foul of the vampires suspicion falls on the Durward family. Lady Durward (Wanda Ventham) is incredibly aged after the loss of her husband (William Hobbs) but is all that it seems?
This is not the usual Hammer fare, as well as plenty of sword play the film contains a deal of whimsy and oddness. The film is sexy and fun though also quite baffling and a little slow to get started. Although overall this is a good film it is not without it's issues. It was not the success Hammer was hoping for and unfortunately the planned series of Kronos films never came about.
