WARNING: Hammer horror this is NOT! Actually it's not a horror movie at all - it's a musty mash of soggy romance, boggy medical thriller an a dribbly drop of zombie flick in the last few secs. Dull in that special way only the dregs of Brit cinema can be! My childhood crush on Hazel Court earns it half a star - otherwise avoid this dog or you'll get bit too!
