Night of the Werewolf / Vengeance of the Zombies

Night of the Werewolf (Spanish title: El Retorno Del Hombre Lobo U.S. title: The Craving)Filmed in the real castles of Spain The Night of the Werewolf is one of Naschy s most impressive films a sumptuous Gothic feast that pits Naschy s werewolf Waldemar Daninsky against the Blood Countess herself Elizabeth Bathory. Filled with werewolf transformations seductive vampire women bloody stakes and piercing silver daggers the film has garnered praise for its fantastical inventiveness and use of macabre imagery.Vengeance of the Zombies (Spanish title: La Rebelion de las Muertas)Vengeance of the Zombies offers a triple threat performance by Naschy as a Hindu mystic his evil brother and the Devil himself. Zombies satanic voodoo rituals and gruesome killings combine to make Vengeance of the Zombies a bizarre ride in the best horror tradition a film that defines the term euro-cult as few other films can.

Both of these films are TERRIBLE!!

Even for a fan of cinema trash (such as myself) these 2 movies are just so bad (acting, directing, set design, everything, terrible) that it was painful to sit through them. If you feel you MUST, rent first!! March 20, 2008

Great initial effort from BCI/Deimos

Both of the films on this Blu-Ray, I had initially purchased on their DVD release from BCI. I must say that I like the DVD packaging the best, as the films seem to be presented with a bit more class. Top notch packaging on the DVD. The Blu-ray, however, is the way to go with regard to the feature presentation. While I did have some issues with the menu operations, as they were simply ported over from the DVD and did not always work the same, I had absolutely no problem appreciating the image quality. The DVDs were amazing. A lot of love and care was taken in their production. The Blu-ray doubles the bit-rate and doubles the picture quality. Like putting on glasses for the first time, moving from the DVD to the Blu-ray was remarkable. The great DVD image that you were used to, all the sudden seems fuzzy in comparison to the Blu-Ray. Both films benefited form the Blu-ray upgrade. While BCI did not go all-out with their Bit-rate transfer, this is definitely a must-purchase for horror fans, particularly those of Paul Naschy. And the price? Wow. Two movies on TWO SEPARATE Blu-ray discs for around $20! That can NOT be beat. My only hope is that BCI continues in this way as I have been buying all of their Spanish horror releases to this point, I am now going to wait for the Blu-ray releases as they are worth the wait. My suggestion to them is to work on the menu operation and maybe increase the bit-rate. Stellar release however. Buy it. February 22, 2008

Cheesy blu ray fun

Vengeance of the Zombies Blu Ray

Haha wow, so horrible it was awesome.

Highlights include a beheading of a real chicken(they really do go nuts after their head is cut off), a pitch fork fight that doesn't disappoint and some of the best porno music I have ever heard... the score doesn't quite go well with the movie

Picture wise I was impressed, I expected nothing and it looked pretty good! Compared to other blurays it doesn't fair well but for a cheap movie from '72 I was pleased. Audio sucked. February 8, 2008
