In a remote corner of England's lavish Peak District, a mysterious skull is unearthed. But even more mysterious is the snakelike Lady Sylvia who steals the skull, then engages in erotic worship of her pagan god, The White Worm, who hungers for the taste of virginal flesh.

Critiques (1)
B-rated horror based on a little-known literary source by B. Stoker, written in the style of a classic gothic novel. Director Russel modernized it, adapted it, and especially imbued it with an erotic charge. Thanks to skillful direction, the film is watchable, although the screenplay is confusing and factually silly. Attractive cast, where the film requires not so much great acting performances as physical attractiveness. Overall impression: 50%.
