Description
Horror legend
Christopher Lee stars as a seemingly benevolent Professor who sends an eager young co-ed with a taste for the occult (the fetching Venetia Stevenson), to the town of Whitewood, Massachusetts to research local witchcraft legends. Once there she checks into a hotel called the Raven's Inn run by the spirit of an undead witch and quickly discovers that the hotel’s boarders are also witches - and that she is about to become their annual sacrifice. Atmospheric and genuinely scary, CITY OF THE DEAD not only stars the inimitable
Christopher Lee, but boasts skillful direction by John Llewellyn Moxley ("The Night Stalker", "The Avengers"). This classic British horror has been painstakingly restored (with the cooperation of the British Film Institute) and is now released for the first time complete and uncut.
