Curse Of The Werewolf (1961). I found the first part more engaging than the rest. There's not enough werewolf action and they should have had more charismatic actors for the parts of Don Alfredo and Cristina - Catherine Feller gives a perfunctory performance (ironically her Wiki entry mentions "She has collaborated with several public and private schools as a lecturer of expressiveness...") and Clifford Evans often seems unfocused. It looks great and the makeup certainly is iconic, but the last third of the film drags somewhat and the beast is too easily defeated in the finale.
