A HAMMER-STYLE GOTHIC CHILLER SET IN THE 19TH CENTURY EDINBURGH STARS PETER CUSHING MANIA (aka "The Flesh and the Fiends") is a classic fright film from Britain's second golden age of horror (mid-1950s to early 70s).
In 1820s Edinburgh, Peter Cushing is a surgeon who requires fresh cadavers for his research; Donald Pleasence and George Rose are two Irish graverobbers that keep him supplied. When newly-buried bodies become scarce the ghouls start murdering drunken derelicts. Things go totally awry however when they kill a streetwalker and her client.
