Blood on Satan's Claw
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blood on Satan's Claw (Satan's Skin in the United States) is a 1970 horror film from Tigon British Film Productions directed by Piers Haggard. The film opens in 17th century England with Ralph Gower (Barry Andrews) uncovering a deformed skull, with one eye and strange fur upon it, while plowing a field. The local judge (Patrick Wymark) is asked to look at it. But the skull has vanished and the Judge disregards Ralph's supernatural fears. However, later many people in the village are becoming affected by this supernatural power including a young woman who sprouts a claw and children who behave oddly after finding a strange claw and who begin to grow fur on their bodies.
The film has the same unsettling atmosphere as Witchfinder General (1968) which was also a Tigon British Films Production.
