흥미로운 사실
The Skull is a 1965 British horror film directed by Freddie Francis for Amicus Productions, and starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, Patrick Wymark, Jill Bennett, Nigel Green, Patrick Magee and Peter Woodthorpe. The script was written by Milton Subotsky from a short story by Robert Bloch, "The Skull of the Marquis de Sade".
Production
The film was an attempt by Amicus to challenge Hammer Film Productions by making a full length colour movie. Once filming started, Freddie Francis rewrote much of Milton Subotsky's script.
Christopher Lee is billed as "guest star" in the film's credits; he plays a supporting role. The film's final twenty-five minutes contain almost no dialogue.
In real life, the Marquis de Sade's body was exhumed from its grave in the grounds of the lunatic asylum at Charenton, where he died in 1814, and his skull was removed for phrenological analysis. It was subsequently lost, and its fate remains unknown.
