Lycanthropus (1961, ITA/AUT) C-83m. ** D: Richard Benson ( =Paolo Heusch). Starring Barbara Lass, Carl Schell, Curt Lowens, Maurice Marsac, Maureen O'Connor, Alan Collins. Minor but not uninteresting horror thriller (an Italian-Austrian coproduction). Gruesome murders at a school for delinquent girls coincide with the arrival of a new teacher. Is he roaming the countryside as a werewolf by night? Weak direction, but some arresting camerawork and interesting plot elements (foreshadowing the giallo) make it watchable. Scripted by Ernesto Gastaldi. Score by Armando Trovaioli. Also known as WEREWOLF IN A GIRLS' DORMITORY, BEI VOLLMOND MORD, THE GHOUL IN SCHOOL, I MARRIED A WEREWOLF, MONSTER AMONG THE GIRLS.
