Comment
Christopher Lee plays the infamous monk Rasputin as he cons, drinks and womanises his way into the top of Russian society. This is a little different from the usual Hammer horror films, but is delivered with the same production quality and historical inaccuracy. Christopher Lee's performance carries the film.
