    Synopsis:
    The Devil Rides Out
    This thrilling screen adaptation of Dennis Wheatley`s classic novel centres on the age-old battle between the forces of good and evil. Employing ancient rituals, a group of Satanists invoke the powers of darkness for personal gain, risking very souls to do so. All those involved become increasingly ensnared by the malevolent presence they have summoned. Learning of a friend`s involvement, the Duke de Richeleau enters the fray as champion for the Powers of Light.
    Accompanied by his three friends, Rex Van Ryn, Simon Aron and Richard Eaton, the Duke takes the battle to the enemy &the very Devil himself!

    The Horror of Frankenstein
    On the sudden death of his father, young Victor Frankenstein (Ralph Bates) inherits his title, his castle and his comely and very accommodating housemaid, Alys (Kate O`Mara). Victor decides to leave college and return home, where he can carry out scientific experiments of which his teachers would never approve.
    With the aid of a grave-robber, Victor collects the parts he requires for his greatest experiment yet - the construction of a human being! As the struggle to keep his experiments secret becomes harder, the body count mounts up - and the monster is not yet complete!

    Scars of Dracula
    When two innocent victims discover the blood drained corpse of a missing friend in Dracula`s castle necropolis, the flesh-creeping horror begins. Christopher Lee, the definitive Count Dracula to British film fans, portrays both the creature`s essential power and evil and his sexual and magnetic appeal, in a script that stems directly from the original Bram Stoker novel.

    Lust For A Vampire
    A distinctive portrayal of the post-sixties vampire eroticism which developed in the search for alternatives to the archetypal Count Dracula figure.
    When the fascinating and fatal Mircalla Karnstein enrolls at an exclusive girls` finishing school in Transylvania, English teacher Richard Lestrange is among those who fall victim to her striking and sensual beauty. As he risks his life to save her from the terrified villagers he must first save himself from her lethal kiss.

    Blood From The Mummy`s Tomb
    The evil begins when professor Julian Fuchs (Andrew Keir) and his expedition team, discover in Egypt, after years of quest, the tomb of Queen Tera (Valerie Leon). The Queen is a beautiful creature, naked save for the tapestry of wonderful jewels that decorate her body. Legend suggests that Egyptian priests murdered Tera, Queen of Darkness, and that she has mysterious powers from beyond the grave&
    The opening of the tomb has a strange effect on Fuchs and his team. Are they aware of the powers they are unleashing when they return to England with the mummy and the strange artefacts found in the tomb?
