In England, a young American falls in love with the sister of a sadistic and lecherous motorcycle gang leader who despises the American.

4.0 out of 5 starsUp There with the Greats !
By Adrian Drew TOP 500 REVIEWER on 13 Oct. 2010
This really is a fine movie - up there with Val Guest's "Quatermass Two" ! It is understated, brilliantly photographed, has great set decorations by Elizabeth Frink, a splendid score and some good performances too, especially the underrated Olive Reed. The chilling ending will haunt you long after the credits have rolled. The transfer is excellent and preserves the wide-screen format. After waiting many years for a good print of this classic its arrival is to be celebrated by all sci-fi fans.

4.0 out of 5 starsEarly Oliver Reed, bizarre premise
By Sharguild on 10 Nov. 2012
Verified Purchase
Now here's an idea.
Let's radiate a group of youngsters in advance to make them immune to radiation if we get nuked, that way they will survive!
What? That's not how radiation works? Screw it, we've got a government grant so let's do this!
Mayhem follows.
Oliver Reed, even at this early introduction is a force to be admired.
Probably one of the best British actors to enter film making in the 1950's, his menacing presence dominates every film he made.
No less this one.
Shirley Ann Field is gorgeous in a tight sweater and excellent as his concerned sister.
It's not a great film but the acting is sincere and honest.
It took two years following completion of production for the film to be released and was cut and edited a number of times before it reached the public.
We have it now in as complete a format as I suspect we ever will and director Joseph Losey may be happy with this release.
Reed is scary good in this. reason enough to own at this price.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe Damned
By Mr. M. Sanders on 24 Oct. 2010
This is a chilling film, I saw it about years ago on late night TV and it is all the more effective for being filmed in black and white.

I found it quite shocking when you see it you will realise why - and the ruthlessness of the people in charge of the 'experiment' is chilling too.

I certainly wasn't expecting it to be so chilling, I had read about the film in a motorcycle book that talked about Oliver Reed's role and the motorcycle gang mostly, so was unprepared for the whole story.

One of those great 50's and 60's British Films!

5.0 out of 5 starsI live with one fact. A power has been released that will melt these stones. We must be ready when the time comes.
By Spike Owen TOP 500 REVIEWER on 25 April 2013
The Damned (AKA: These Are The Damned) is directed by Joseph Losey and adapted to screenplay by Evan Jones from the novel The Children of Light written by H.L. Lawrence. It stars Macdonald Carey, Shirley Anne Field, Oliver Reed, Alexander Knox, Viveca Lindfors and Walter Gotell. Music is by James Bernard and cinematography by Arthur Grant.

The South Coast of England, and a middle aged American tourist, a Teddy Boy gang leader and his troubled sister are thrust together into a deadly scenario deep below the cliffs of Weymouth...

Blacklisted by Hollywood, Joseph Losey moved to Britain to continue his artistic leanings. 1963 saw the release of two Losey movies, the much lauded The Servant and also The Damned, the latter of which was finished in 1961 but held back for reasons that are not exactly clear. As it transpires, The Damned is something of an under seen gem, a unique picture that defies genre classification, one of Hammer Films' oddest productions but all the more brilliant for it.

From the off it should be stated that this is not a film for those wishing to be cheered up, from a brutal mugging at the start to a finale that will haunt your dreams, pessimism and bleakness pervades the narrative. This is in the vein of The Quatermass series of films, tinged with a touch of John Wyndham's Midwich Cuckoos, yet for the fist part of the film there's no clue as to where the narrative will take you.

The back drop is a sunny and vibrant seaside town (Weymouth one of my favourite British resorts), an irritatingly catchy tune (Black Leather Rock) is being sung as we follow the meeting of the principal characters.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsBest Sci-Fi Teddy Boy Mash Up Ever
By Now Zoltan on 22 Feb. 2011
For all its flaws, you won't forget this movie in a hurry. We open with a great theme song and seem to be heading for a jaunty delinquents on the loose caper. 90 minutes later a stench of dystopian doom hangs over proceedings and that singalong number seems a lifetime ago.
Negatives - I found a lot of the acting pretty wooden (Oliver Reed obviously excepted) and some of the dialogue seemed a bit stagey. There's also definite pacing issues and I could have did without the May-September romance at the centre of proceedings (is this the creepiest hero in the movies?). All this is more than compensated by the sheer originality of the story, the beautiful photography and a real haunting atmosphere - I fully expect to dream about this film for some time to come.
Recommended for fans of Hammer, vintage British Sci-Fi and, well, anyone really.

5.0 out of 5 starsA True Classic and in my view underrated
By Mr. M. J. Traverse on 1 July 2010
Verified Purchase
This is an enjoyable film with future star Oliver Reed in an earlier role as a gang leader.Yes there seems be two plots but i never found this off putting.Shirley Anne Field,ex glamour model and co-starring in later films with Steve Mcqueen,Robert Wagner and Yul Brynner also stars in this as Reeds sister and the go between for muggings.The Children scientifically tested against possible nuclear bombs seems a tad sinister but this was the rage in the sixties,cold war etc..Shot in Weymouth and Portland,a lot of scenes still remain the same as today,i should know ive visited most this week..Highly Recommended and an Excellent DVD!
