Castle of Blood (1964)


This is pretty bad. It's an old Italian horror film ostensibly based on an Edgar Allen Poe story. (I think that's one of those movie lies.)

A journalist bets that he can survive a night in a haunted mansion. I need to look up the Haunting - was that after this? Nope, the Haunting was 1963. This appears to be an Italian knock-off! Could they have filmed and released Castle of Blood in a year? Based on the production quality, I would say yes.

Anyway, all these dead people come to life in the mansion on this one night and mess with him. He falls in love with one women. Since it is an Italian film, there are boobs and implied sex. Also, the heroine has two men and a women trying to have sex with her in one night! They all end up dead. What a downer.

I would pass on this one. Watch The Haunting instead.
