aka The Blood Demon, The Snake Pit and the Pendulum, Blood of the Virgins and Castle of the Walking Dead. No idea why it has so many English titles. The German orginal is Die Schlangengrube und das Pendulum, which translates to 'the snake pit and the pendulum'.
This is a German answer to the Hammer movies. It even has Christopher Lee as 'Count Regula', who seeks immortality by absorbing the blood of virgins. He is executed but comes back for revenge.
I liked it better than a regular Hammer. The action is very tame, even more so than in a Hammer movie. Lex Barker mostly stands about looking manly and dashing. It does have a lot more atmosphere. For one thing, it is actually filmed in Central Europe and they make good use of picturesque locations. I can imagine if you see this at an impressionable age, it can become a childhood favourite.
The count certainly didn't hold back when it came to installing portcullises in his castle.

Bad Movies / Re: The Killer Tomato movies
Last post by Dr. Whom - Today at 02:23:37 AMThe first one is wonderfully inept, but it is carried along by its unflinching commitment to silliness.
I did see the second one, but I only have vague memories of it. They did smooth over some of the rough edges of the first, but that lost the charm of the original. It did have Karen Mistal in it, who then went on to do Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death.
