Night Of The Demon - 1957 - 7/10
AKA - Curse Of The Demon

Old school ghost tale based on M R James’ classic, “Casting The Runes.”
American professor come to London for conference on supernatural.
He runs afoul of devil worshiper and realizes a curse has been placed.
Moody, atmospheric film, with adversaries polite and well mannered.
Dana Andrews fine as skeptical American joining forced with colleague’s younger niece.
Fortunately, no icky romance which would be de rigueur nowadays.
A trifle stuffy, but an excellent adult supernatural yarn.
