The second episode in the series is directed by a veteran (albeit a latter-day recruit) of Hammer Films. Again, while hardly outstanding, this is a more than adequate effort – even if, for the most part, the narrative follows a mystery-thriller pattern rather than outright horror. Then again, the studio has had its fair share of films in this style and, in any case, the final revelation is horrific (if not exactly unpredictable) – truth be told, it's more 'shocking' than most of their now rather quaint films! The casting is modest but nonetheless effective: Julia Foster overacts somewhat (particularly when supposed to show bewilderment) as the reporter heroine covering the goings-on at a newly-established diet clinic, Dinah Sheridan (best-known for her role in GENEVIEVE [1953]) is her newspaper editor, Gerard Kelly the young funeral attendant who alerts Foster to his employers' extra-curricular activities (which she discovers have a connection with the clinic), and Warren Clarke (Dim from A CLOCKWORK ORANGE [1971]) gets a nice role as an ill-fated patient who befriends Foster but ends up getting the wrong sort of raw deal!
