[Classic Horror] The She Beast {1/6}

An old goofy horror film from 1966 directed by Micheal Reeves

In 18th Century Transylvania, a horrible hag of a witch is terrorizing the locals, who gather together to sentence her to a death with an ingenious, torturous dunking chair death in the lake. But before dying, the witch Vardella swears revenge on the descendants of the town. Some 200 years later, the young honeymooning British couple of Veronica (Barbara Steele) and Philip (Ian Ogilvy, in his first feature) are motoring through the modern-day communist Carpathians, and decide to stay at the inn run by burly Ladislav Groper (the legendary Mel Welles). The lovely Veronica to later transforms into the centuries-old witch. Desperate to bring his new bride back to her rightful form, Philip seeks the help of the wise bookworm Dr. Von Helsing (John Karlsen), an elderly descendant of the man who slayed Count Dracula.
