THE STRANGLER OF BLACKMORE CASTLE is a German horror thriller from 1963, in which a brutal masked killer stalks the grounds of a British estate, intent on exposing a dark secret.
violence
A helmeted motorcyclist is decapitated by a cord stretched out across a road. Characters are murdered by being strangled and there is hand-to-hand fighting with punches, slaps and shoves.
threat and horror
A man pins a woman down and threatens to torture her by drilling her eye with an industrial tool. There are scenes of knife and gun threat, tense sequences in which a masked killer stalks his victims and scenes in which characters are trapped by falling rubble.
injury detail
There is close-up sight of severed heads and a severed finger as well as decapitated corpses; there is no gory detail, however, and the effects are dated. The letter 'm' is shown carved into the foreheads of several murder victims, but bloody detail is again limited.
additional issues
A street sign advertises a 'striptease' cub and there are moments of mild comic innuendo about the mating calls of birds. A man briefly behaves in a sexually harassing way toward a barmaid. A man suspected of having mental health issues is referred to as a 'nutter'. There is very mild bad language ('God', 'damn'). People are shown drinking alcohol and smoking.
