THESE ARE THE DAMNED (SONY)

Excellent film that starts off as a JD film and quickly turns into a drama and then sci-fi thriller. MacDonald Carey stars as a tourist in England who is beaten up by punks and gets mixed up with the sister of the leader of the punks, played by the wonderful Oliver Reed. Then Carey and his girl head out to sea and get stranded in a bizarre underground cave where mysterious children live who are cold to the touch and highly radioactive.
The film is bleak and disturbing and nobody lives thru the film. A steller cast also includes Alexander Knox, Viveca Lindfors, Shirley Anne Field and more.
This has been released as part of the Sony 6 movie set called Hammer Icons of Suspense Collection. I highly recommend it.
