Corridors of Blood

In 1840s Britain, surgeon Thomas Bolton (Boris Karloff) looked to ease the suffering of his patients, and strove to find breakthroughs in anesthesia. Tragically, his efforts left him addicted to the compounds he was experimenting with--and ripe for exploitation and blackmail by the ringleaders (Christopher Lee, Francis de Wolff) of a grave-robbing gang. Blood-curdler from Britain also stars Betta St. John, Finlay Currie, Adrienne Corri, Francis Matthews. 86 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
