This is an American horror film from 1958. It was directed by Charles R. Rondeau and the acting cast includes Edgar Buchanan, Jean Allison and Richard Crane.
An old man is a hermit and sacrifices a goat. He's later found dead, and then his young nephew Nick comes to town, who seems unable to sweat during a heatwave. Some find it odd that his uncle never even mentioned him. He takes an interest in Nell, the pretty blonde daughter of a local doctor. She's already serious with another guy and things escalate to horrible.
Despite the credits listed on websites, this film was actually from 1958 but wasn't released until 1961. The official film poster shows a woman kidnapped by a centaur even though it doesn't appear in the entire film. One can understand why using artistic imagination of the poster after watching the film from start to finish because it's got a shape-shifter theme. There isn't much gore but some violence and a man being attacked by a dog scene. It's a little bit creepy though. I rate this quiet supernatural film a nice 6/10.
