31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 19: TAM LIN 1970 (OLIVE)

Interesting film based on a Scottish folk song.

Ava Gardner stars in this bizarre tale directed by Roddy McDowell. Gardner plays Michaela Cazaret an older woman who keeps her jet set friends thru witchcraft.

Everything seems to be fine until one of her young studs, Tom Lynn, played by Ian McShane falls for a local girl played by the gorgeous Stephanie Beacham and then all hell breaks loose as she plans revenge, and what a horrific revenge it is.

The film is shot very beautifully and the acting is top notch. The final 15 or 20 minutes will really keep your attention. A rare film that Olive decided to release is a welcome addition to any DVD collection. I do Highly Recommend this film to any horror fan.

The cast, as I said earlier is superb and also includes Cyril Cusack, Joanna Lumley, and Rosemary Blake. AKA The Devil's Widow.
