***Ten Little Indians and One Werewolf*** Shot in an actual Hungarian castle, the plot of "Howling V: The Rebirth" (1989) is borrowed from "The Beast Must Die" (1974) wherein a group of people spend the night in a huge European estate while one of the party, a werewolf, systematically butchers the guests. It's basically a whodunit a la Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None." It's also reminiscent of the underrated "Devil's Nightmare" aka "The Devil Walks at Midnight" (1971), albeit not as good. Still, it comes close, and although the werewolf is barely seen I found this a solid low-budget mystery flick with a werewolf. Besides, Elizabeth Shé (Marylou) has an exceptional scene and there's a superb Gothic score. But gorehounds who want to see loads of bloody werewolf action should pass (there's a little, but not enough to appease modern gorehounds). The film runs 1 hour, 36 minutes. GRADE: B-
