I want to stay young

The Leech Woman was made towards the end of Universal's run of 1950's/60's horror/sci-fi movies and I found this quite enjoyable.

A woman discovers a way to stay young and she travels to Africa to get the substances needed, one of which is from dead men. Her first victim is her husband and then her lover. Each time the effects where off, she gets older. Back in the States, more people are killed and when she kills her solicitor's fiancée and tries the substance she got off her, it doesn't work and she jumps out of a window to her death.

The cast includes Coleen Gray (Phantom Planet), Grant Williams (The Incredible Shrinking Man, The Monolith Monsters), Gloria Talbott (I Married A Monster From Outer Space) and Phillip Terry (The Navy vs the Night Monsters).

The Leech Woman is a good way to spend an hour and a quarter or so one evening. Quite good.
