True story but highly melodramatic account of the mesmerist. Rasputin (Christopher Lee) a monk living in Czarist Russia, leads an outward life of religious devotion which masks his true nature:

A bestial, murdering lout who uses his mysterious powers of hypnotism and his gift for healing as tools of manipulation. In St. Petersburg, he uses the lovely Sonia (Barbara Shelley) to infiltrate the royal family of Nicholas II and exercise his wicked control over Russia itself.

However, political forces begin to brew and conspire to bring an end to the monk's subversive reign. Rasputin chops off an opponets' hand in a fight and throws acid in another guy's face. When plotters close to the family try to kill him, they find the task nearly impossible.
