The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971)

Directed by Piers Haggard
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

The better title is "The Devil's Skin", as hairy patches of it grow on the arms, legs and backs of those destined for "the master". It's slow going in a medieval English village dealing with the discovery of a "fiend" in a pasture. Soon the local teenagers are disappearing in the woods. They are led by Angela, who has large painted eyebrows and likes to get naked and kill people. The resolution involves some guy in a fur suit, and it's in slow motion no less.
