Must The Beast Die reviews
From Dark Sky Films comes the DVD release of The Beast Must Die (1974), part of their `The Amicus Collection’ DVD series (two other films, so far, include 1973’s And Now the Screaming Starts and 1972’s Asylum), which I was very excited to see for two reasons, the first being I don’t think Amicus has really gotten its due over the years (overshadowed by their competitor Hammer Studios), and the second being my past experiences with Dark Sky Films have been good ones as they seem to put forth an exceptional effort in their DVD releases. Directed by Paul Annett (”Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected”), the film stars Calvin Lockhart (Uptown Saturday Night, Predator 2) and Peter Cushing (Twins of Evil, The Creeping Flesh, Star Wars), who frequently appeared in both Amicus and Hammer film releases. Also appearing is Marlene Clark (Beware! The Blob), Charles Gray (Diamonds Are Forever, The Rocky Horror Picture Show), Ciaran Madden (Swing Kids), Tom Chadbon (Tess), Michael Gambon (Toys, Layer Cake), and Anton Diffring (Circus of Horrors, Fahrenheit 451).
Lockhart plays Tom Newcliffe, an obsessive, wealthy big game hunter who invites a small group of individuals under false pretenses to his isolated country estate as he’s out for the biggest game of them all, a real live werewolf…you see, Tom believes one of his guests is, in fact, a werewolf, and he’s scheduled their stay during time when he knew there’d be a full moon in the hopes that the individual afflicted would transform allowing Tom the hunt of a lifetime. As the story begins we see some of the precautions Tom’s taken in fortifying his estate with security measures including a helicopter, armed guards, hidden cameras and microphones, underground sensors, and so on, all installed and maintained by his security specialist Pavel (Diffring). After revealing his true intent to his guests (most all, including his wife Caroline, played by Clark, think Tom is a bit nutty) and ensuring none can leave, the fun begins

I’ve had a six brush Hoover steam vac for 10 yrs. and it was time for a new one. The attachment hose kept tearing at the bottom when you collapsed the vacuum. But I was really surprised to see they re-engineered the new one to not do that anymore!! Even though it is more work to attach the hose, it is worth it knowing I won’t be breaking something down the road. I have always been happy with our steam vac. We have had a cat for 14 years and the messes he made were always able to be cleaned up, along with our little girl! I used this steam vac a couple of days after I received it(which only took two days for normal delivery!! Don’t have to pay extra for two day delivery), and was very happy again. The carpets were dry in just a couple of hours. I would highly recommed this steamvac to anyone and was very happy about the price!
