31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 23: THE SKULL 1965 (LEGEND FILMS)

Legend Films brought this to DVD a few years ago and it was such a pleasure to see this film after so many years. It used to turn up on channel 42 in Richland, Washington almost every month, then it vanished.

Peter Cushing stsra as a collector of rare items who comes to own the skull of the Marquis DeSade, which is possessed by an evil spirit. It them makes him kill and steal.

There are some pretty memorable scenes of murder and nightmare dreams and a great use of color. The supporting cast includes Micheal Gough, Christopher Lee, George Coulouris, Jill Bennett, Patrick Magee, Patrick Wymark, and Anna Palk. Excellent frights for the Halloween season.
