Movie review - "The Spaniard's Curse" (1959) **

 Starts promisingly - man condemned to death for murder condemns all those part of it - but then bogs down into conventionality. Lee Patterson and Susan Beaumont make dull leads investigating. Tony Wright is more at home here as a cad then in his tough guy parts but his limitations tell after a while.

One of a series of Bs produced by Roger Proudlock but there's been money for extras and Michael Hordern's in the support cast. I wish they'd spun this out into a sci fi /fantasy direction, it would've given it some kick.
