The Beast Must Die (1974)

A Mystery Werewolf Film



Like all mystery movies there is a tendency from the viewer to guess 'whodunnit' (who it is) before the ending of the film. So this movie is not any different except the stopping of the film before the ending to give you one more chance to think about before it is revealed - that is the only difference. The ending of this film would have been just the same with or without the  "werewolf break". So if one guessed wrong then they would have guessed wrong anyway, again, with or without the  "werewolf break" - it still ended the same.

Reading the wiki, there is an alternative to this film called "Black Werewolf" - and it says the ONLY difference is the  "werewolf break" is omitted.

It's worth watching if you like trying to solve a movie mystery and werewolves.

7/10
