The Curse of the Werewolf (1961)

It surprises me that for all the classic horror that Hammer Films produced in the late 1950s, it wasn't until the sequels to their versions of Frankenstein and Dracula were out before they turned to the tale of the werewolf in 1961. It's a classical take with a werewolf clearly pulling from the Lon Chaney … Continue reading The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) →

Night of the Seagulls (1975)

Well, here we are, at the end of the Blind Dead series. Night of the Seagulls is the fourth and final movie in Amando de Ossorio's tetralogy about blind undead Knights Templar, and once again it reinvents the formula. No longer are the Templars mere Satan worshippers; now they're visitors from France 600 years ago, … Continue reading Night of the Seagulls (1975) →

The Ghost Galleon (1974)

My experience with the Blind Dead series continues with the third entry in the tetralogy. This time the formula has been changed up so that all the action takes place on a boat full of men who had sympathized and allied with the Knights Templar but had instead been lost on the high seas and … Continue reading The Ghost Galleon (1974) →

Return of the Blind Dead (1973)

Two years after Spanish director Amando de Ossorio finished his first Blind Dead movie, he released a sequel, El Ataque de los Muertos Sin Ojos, AKA Return of the Blind Dead or Return of the Evil Dead. Unfortunately no, it has nothing to do with the Evil Dead series, instead returning to the concept of … Continue reading Return of the Blind Dead (1973) →

Tombs of the Blind Dead (1972)

In medieval Spain, the Knights Templar committed heinous acts of black magic involving feasting on the flesh and blood of virgin women in order to protract their lives. Their order was forcibly disbanded by King Philip IV of Spain, but in the modern 1970s their revenants still wander their old castle in a sort of … Continue reading Tombs of the Blind Dead (1972) →

Nightmare City (1980)

In the wake of George Romero's Of the Dead series, Italy's exploitation community went more than a little nuts with zombie films, leading to the Zombi/Zombie/Zombie Flesh Eaters series, depending on the region. Most of the films that appear in these disparate series are not actually related in any way, but titles were changed or … Continue reading Nightmare City (1980) →
