At the fin de siecle an evil bunch of land grabbing, murderous thugs slaughter an entire camp of gypsies in a particularly gruesome fashion. The matriarch calls down a curse upon the land stealers. This interesting flick is a werewolf tale set in the Somme forest. The werewolf is not your run of the mill, turn by night lycanthrope; this monster is frightening. I mean frightening. The dream sequences are unsettling to the core.
