"Christopher Lee's finest Hammer hour ... It's the part he was born to play, and he knows it." – BritishHorrorFiIms.co.uk "One of Lee's finest roles ... it seems like there is Iiterally nothing that the man cannot do." – The TelltaIe Mind Hammer FiIms' dual reputation for screen shock and flamboyant costume adventure meId in this taIe of the reaI-Iife "hoIy man" whose eviI charm held the fate of an entire nation in its grip. ln Czarist Russia, Rasputin (Christopher Lee), a peasant monk, mysteriousIy demonstrates his heaIing powers by saving a woman's life and asking onIy for wine and a Bacchanalian ceIebration in return. But soon Rasputin uses his evil charm and powers to become increasingly manipulative and vioIent. Ferocious, devious and other-worIdIy, this uncouth peasant ingratiates himself bit by bit into the lives of the sophisticated royaI cIass ... Christopher Lee's muIti-layered performance as Rasputin rates as one of the best portrayaIs in any fiIm. |
