Normally, church priests like to see packed attendances from the local parishioners but certainly not of the Haemovore persuasion, in his memorable image from the World War II era set horror spectacular The Curse of Fenric, which gave us an excellent performance from Nicholas Parsons, always an actor before becoming stereotyped later on as a gameshow host, as the faithless and vulnerable vicar Reverend Wainright out of his depth against an ancient enemy.

The Curse of Fenric has never looked better on Blu-ray as part of the BBC's recently released Season Twenty-Six collection set. I hope you all managed to snap it up before it disappeared!
