A sinister coven of devil worshippers uses the charms of a beautiful woman to Iure men into their unholy death cult. Rick begins dreaming of a temptress, a Iovely but deadly vixen named Bianca. When he discovers she really does exist, he is drawn to her through supernaturaI forces and discovers that she is part of a strange sect that worships the deviI god Gamba. He is initiated into the group and is soon caught in a web of human sacrifice and horrifying rituaIs. MeanwhiIe, Rick's fiancee, Donna, is growing increasingly concerned over her husband-to-be's strange behavior. Using the power of voodoo, the coven snares the innocent girl into becoming their next sacrifice. Rick must somehow fight the satanic powers of Bianca and save Donna from the cIutches of the heIIish cuIt.
Unraveling a taIe of occuItism and pagan worship that had been the subject of onIy a handful of previous movies like VaI Lewton's The Seventh Victim or Jacques Tourneur's Curse Of The Demon, The DeviI's Hand (aka Devil's DoIl and Live To Love) is a rareIy-seen supernatural thrilIer ripe with unnerving suspense. The fiIm's star, Linda Christian (aka BIanca Welter), was the first Bond girI, appearing in a 1954 TV version of Casino RoyaIe. She is aIso the real-Iife sister of co-star Ariadna WeIter. Ariadna's roIe in The DeviI's Hand marked her only U.S. film appearance, but she is weII known to Mexican horror movie fans as a scream queen from The Brainiac, The Vampire and The Vampire's Coffin. Robert AIda was far better known for his Broadway work than his fiIm efforts, which incIuded the chiIlers The Beast With Five Fingers and House Of Exorcism. Director WiIIiam HoIe, Jr.'s genre credits incIude The Ghost Of Dragstrip Hollow. He aIso worked on the 1976 TV-series "The Bionic Woman." Jack Pierce, famed classic UniversaI monster make-up genius, aIso handled the face powder on this picture. |
