Beryl Reid, born in 1919, was a British actress known for her striking performances in cult cinema. In The Assassination Bureau (1969), she delivers a memorable portrayal that showcases her flair for both drama and comedy. Reid also appears in Psychomania (1973), where her role adds a layer of intrigue to this unique blend of horror and dark humor. With a career that spanned decades, her work in films like Entertaining Mr. Sloane (1970) and Carry On Emmannuelle (1978) solidified her place in the realm of exploitation and grindhouse cinema.
The Assassination Bureau
The Assassination Bureau has existed for decades (perhaps centuries) until Diana Rigg begins to investigate it. The high moral standing of the Bureau (only killing those who deserve it) is called into question by her. She puts out a contract for the Bureau to assassinate its leader on the eve of World War I.
