Castle Of Evil (1966)

On a secluded private island in the Caribbean, a disparate group of six people have been ferried in to see a dying millionaire (William Thourlby). They all have reason to hate him but they're all mentioned in his will. Directed by Francis D. Lyon (CULT OF THE COBRA). If Agatha Christie wrote a horror movie, it might look something like this although it would most likely be much better. It's all rather monotonous in its execution and its convoluted plot doesn't make much sense. The saddest part of the film is seeing actors who had careers in major films reduced to a low budget B horror (with sci-fi trimmings) film. A matronly but still attractive Virginia Mayo brings some sass and spark to her aging tart but it's a far cry from her salad days as leading lady to James Cagney, Gregory Peck and Danny Kaye! With Scott Brady, Hugh Marlowe, David Brian, Lisa Gaye and Shelley Morrison.
