Sulla casata dei Saint lambert grava una maledizione: tutti i discendenti sono destinati a morire a trentacinque anni. Un giornalista e sua moglie si recano nel castello di un amico, conte di Lambert, e svelano il segreto. Un horror gotico classico degli anni settanta, con qualche implicazione sexy. Tedioso e per nulla pauroso.
