It was one of those films that stuck with me for whatever reason when allegedly films i enjoyed more never did.

He played the copper didn't he, another bastard Did Grau just say to them, be as nasty as you like...

I didn't really mind the lack of violence/gore and I did appreciate the atmosphere, the scene where they escaped from the crypt was really good. There were some absolutely bonkers bits though, not least the Doctor nonchalantly escorting George around the hospital while his nurses were being blinded by violent newborns 'Look after her will you' and 'Hold that'
