La casa de la muerte negra (1965)
Dos académicos (las ex estrellas Andrea King y Tom Drake, ahora entrados en arrugas y kilos) llegan a la casa de los Dessard y son atendidos por sus anfitriones. Se rumorea que hay lobos que matan a las ovejas e incluso a seres humanos de una aldea cercana, pero el conflicto central es una reyerta familiar entre dos hermanos hechiceros negros (los personajes de Carradine y Chaney). Sin mediar enlace válido, la trama nos lleva a un recinto en que la opulenta starlet británica Sabrina (la "Jayne Mansfield de Inglaterra") le realiza una atrevida danza a un Lon Chaney que porta significativos cuernos (el nombre de su personaje, "Belial", es una antigua denominación del Diablo). Tras infinidad de diálogos, la secuencia esperada de la metamorfosis del licántropo nos revela un tipo con una máscara de... gorila hippie.
