The Phantom of the Opera is a 1962 British ’Hammer Film Productions’ horror mystery drama film. It features Herbert Lom, Heather Sears, Edward de Souza, Thorley Walters, Michael Gough, and Patrick Troughton. Composer Lord Ambrose D’Arcy (Michael Gough) and his backer, Harry Hunter (Edward De Souza), struggle to find a replacement for the female lead in their new opera after she quits in the wake of a gruesome murder. When a new prospect, the nubile Christine Charles (Heather Sears), disappears, Harry cautiously investigates. Meanwhile, a mysterious masked man (Herbert Lom) who is eerily familiar with the opera holds Christine captive and offers to groom her to play the part.
