Night Creatures (1962)

FAQ

Night Creatures

FAQ



    At the time, Disney was planning a film based on the same story. To avoid legal disputes, Hammer changed the name of the central character to Reverend Blyss, rather than Dr Syn, as in the original novel.

    Disney DID in fact make a feature-length Sym story, but on television, with Patrick McGoohan in the title role as Syn, more of a hero than secret villain as he is in the Hammer film.
