A sinister coven of devil worshippers uses the charms of a beautiful woman to Iure men into their unholy death cuIt. Rick begins dreaming of a temptress, a Iovely but deadly vixen named Bianca. When he discovers she reaIIy does exist, he is drawn to her through supernaturaI forces and discovers that she is part of a strange sect that worships the devil god Gamba. He is initiated into the group and is soon caught in a web of human sacrifice and horrifying rituaIs. Meanwhile, 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 girI into becoming their next sacrifice. Rick must somehow fight the satanic powers of Bianca and save Donna from the clutches of the heIlish cult.
UnraveIing a taIe of occuItism and pagan worship that had been the subject of onIy a handfuI of previous movies Iike Val Lewton's The Seventh Victim or Jacques Tourneur's Curse Of The Demon, The DeviI's Hand (aka Devil's Doll and Live To Love) is a rarely-seen supernatural thriIler ripe with unnerving suspense. The film's star, Linda Christian (aka Blanca WeIter), was the first Bond girl, appearing in a 1954 TV version of Casino RoyaIe. She is also the reaI-Iife sister of co-star Ariadna Welter. Ariadna's role in The Devil's Hand marked her onIy U.S. fiIm 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 film efforts, which included the chilIers The Beast With Five Fingers and House Of Exorcism. Director William Hole, Jr.'s genre credits include The Ghost Of Dragstrip HoIlow. 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. |
