Despite a stupid bad wig, Peter does ok

Unfortunately, the rest of this thing sucks. To me, Amicus was real cheapjack trash compared to Hammer Studios, and IMO, had ONE good movie (THE SKULL). EXTREMELY TEDIOUS AND BORING.

Yes, looks like Amicus let Cushing keep the wig to wear in Hammer's FRANKENSTEIN AND THE MONSTER FROM HELL the following year.

Yeah, I was thinking that too, the wig does look very similar to the one he wears in 'Monster from Hell'.

I was thinking it looked like the same wig from one of the Frankenstein movies as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. As for your criticism of Amicus, I love all of their movies I've seen (all the anthologies are the best, Tales From the Crypt is one of my top 10 favorites of all time). This movie was pretty good too. I suppose I like "cheapjack trash" though. It's just the kind of stuff I'm drawn to.
