Rasputin, the Mad Monk - 1966 ***


Hammer productions churned out a load of excellent movies during their most popular years, but unfortunately this wasn't one of my favourites, and comparing it to the earlier watched 'Asylum' I can say that this was vastly inferior.

The film is based around the mysterious life of Rasputin, who some people thought of a kind of god for curing people who were ill, and others thought of as a devil-like creature.

I still don't really know what my opinion of him is, but highly doubt that someone could place their hand on someone's forehead and cure them of a deadly disease without having a tiny bit of good in them. I wouldn't watch this again.
