The Gorgon

For five years the mid-European village of Vandorf has been plagued by a series of bizarre murders. Victims are discovered after a full moon, each turned to stone. Dr. Namaroff (Peter Cushing) and his nurse, Carla Hoffmann (Barbara Shelley), receive the petrified corpses at the local hospital, where Namaroff controversially concludes that they died of natural causes. Paul Heitz (Richard Pasco) and Professor Meister (Christopher Lee) instead believe that the deaths are the work of Megaera - the mythical Gorgon with a head of writhing snakes. As the next full moon approaches, Meister further suspects that Megaera's spirit has been in their midst all along...
