Curse of the Demon
Directed by Jacques Tourneur
An American psychologist (Dana Andrews) journeys to London to debunk a devil-worshipping cult after his colleague is mysteriously murdered, but soon becomes the next target of a demonic curse. Well known for less-is-more horror hits like 1942’s CAT PEOPLE, Jacques Tourneur returned to the genre after 14 years for this eerie Satanic scarefest. But the producer nixed Tourneur’s plans to avoid showing the titular monster, much to his dismay. Despite this, CURSE became a ‘50s horror classic, referenced in both THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and Kate Bush’s “Hounds of Love”.

A classic that's just as good now as it was when I first saw it years ago. A good early entry into movies about witchcraft.
Some cringe stereo types but we all laughed out loud when the smart character mentioned aliens being stupid definitely didn't age too well but is a fun watch
