WITCHCRAFT 1964 (FOX)

Lon Chaney, Jr. stars in this great classic film about a family named Whitlock who are actually a family of witches whose family cemetary is being plowed up for a new building. This causes their 300 year old matriarch, a female witch to rise from the grave and seek revenge.
Great little black and white shocker which is both moody and scary at the same time.
The director was Don Sharp who always knew how to handle this kind of material. The cast is rounded out by Jack Hedley, Jill Dixon, Diane Clare and Yvette Rees as the 300 year old Vanessa Whitlock, and I'd say she looks pretty damn good for 300 years old.
Recommended!!
