Synopsis
"Curse of the Demon" (also known as "Night of the Demon") is a 1957 British horror film that has been colorized to bring its eerie atmosphere to new life. Directed by Jacques Tourneur and based on the story by M.R. James, the film stars Dana Andrews, Peggy Cummins, and Niall MacGinnis. This atmospheric and suspenseful tale centers around a professor, Dr. John Holden (Dana Andrews), who becomes embroiled in a mysterious and terrifying occult investigation.

Dr. Holden travels to England to attend a conference and investigate the death of his colleague, Professor Harrington, who was apparently killed by a demon. As he delves deeper into the case, Holden uncovers the existence of a satanic cult led by the sinister Dr. Julian Karswell (Niall MacGinnis). The cult is rumored to have the power to summon a deadly demon through an ancient curse. Despite his skepticism, Holden soon becomes the target of the very same curse, and he must race against time to find a way to escape the supernatural forces pursuing him.

The film blends psychological horror with supernatural elements, creating a tense atmosphere as Holden tries to unravel the mystery while being stalked by a malevolent presence. "Curse of the Demon" remains a classic of British horror, with its effective use of suspense, eerie visuals, and unsettling sense of dread.
