A Sick Saturday Cinema One Movie Double Feature: TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD

FYB is Deviously Delighted to Bring You the 1972 Spanish- Portuguese Zombie Horror Film TOMBS OF THE BLIND DEAD Written and Directed by Amando de Ossorio. The Original Spanish Title is La note del terror ciego which Translates to The Night of the Blind Terror in English. The Film was the First in Ossorio’s “Blind Dead” Series that Spawned Three Sequels, and Who’s Success Helped Kickstart the Spanish Horror Movie Boom in the 1970’s.

              

This Movie Presentation is a Little Different than the Normal FYB Format Granted, But Aside from that Please Allow Us to Explain Ourselves. This Particular Double Feature is the Same Movie and there is a Reason for that. The First Version is the English Version then Following it is the Original Spanish-Portuguese Version. Aside from the Fairly Obvious Difference of Subtitles there are In Fact Several Major Differences Between the Two Versions of The Tombs of the Blind Dead..

In the English Version a Flashback of the Living Nights Templar Torturing and Drinking the Blood of a Female Victim was Removed from the Beginning of the Movie. Most of the SEX AND GORE was Removed from the English Version as Well which was Heavily Edited By American Film Distributers. For Example The Scene Depicting the Lesbian Relationship between Betty and Virginia, a Scene in which Pedro Rapes Betty, and a Sequence on a Train in Which the Knights Kill a Woman in Front of Her Child were All Removed.

              

Brief Plot Summary: In the 13th Century there Existed a LEGION OF EVIL Renegade Knights known as the Templars, Who Quested for Eternal Life by DRINKING HUMAN BLOOD and Committing HUMAN SACRIFICES FOR SATAN! Executed for Their Unholy Black Magic and Inhuman Savagery, the Templar’s Bodies were left Out for The Crows to Peck Out Their Eyes. Now in Modern Dat Portugal, a Group of Unsuspecting People stumble Upon the Templar’s Abandoned Monastery, Thus Reviving Their ROTTING ZOMBIFIED CORPSES to Terrorize the Land Feasting on the Blood of the Living!!

Enjoy.

We Hope You Enjoyed This Tale of The Undead Monk Madness and Murder as Much as We Did.

FYB Wicked Wednesday Movie: THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY!

FYB is Proud as a Pig in Shit to Bring You the Italian Cult Horror Movie THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY Directed By the Goliath of Gore Lucio Fulci!

            

Brief Plot Summery:

When the Boyle Family temporarily moves not a Mason near Boston so the Father can do some Research, His Son Bob starts seeing the Ghostly Spector of a Young Girl motioning to Him, and this leads Bob to uncover the Basement’s TERRIBLE SECRET! Lurking in the Shadows of the Gloomy Basement lives Dr. Freudstein who has been residing in the Basement since 1879 after He was Banned from the Medical Profession, and has managed to keep Himself Alive by Murdering the Various Residents of the House and Harvesting Their Cells to Keep His Body Going.

A Grossly Oversized Bat Attacks the Father, Floors come Apart and Crush Unsuspecting Victims, and at one Point the Bob’s Head is Held against the Basement Door by the Evil Doctor while HIs Father is Wildly Swinging an Ax through the Door to Save His Son’s Life. Scenes like these and Others are the REAL OBJECTIVE of the Movie-The Strange and Irresolute Ending, and the Leaps and Gaps in the Storyline, are Prime Indicators that alll Else is Dispensable Pretext- GORE IS THE GOAL, AND IT’S DELIVERED IN SICKENING DOSES!!!

            

Some People’s Opinions of the Movie:

“The House by the Cemetery is truly unsettling experience whose different parts never quite add up to a coherent whole, and linger in the Darkest Passageways of the Mind.” -Anton Bitel (VODzilla.co)

“What No to Love about film that has a Haunted House, a Mad Scientist, A Cemetery, Flesh Eating Cellar Dwelling Zombies, an Evil Imaginary Friend, A Clueless Cavalcade of Victims, Gore Galore, AND an Over The Top Vampire Bat-Bite?” – Staci Layne Wilson (Horror.Com)

“I had a Blast with this Horror Classic even if it is Highly Evocative of Other Isolated Scary House Movies.” -Ed Travis (Hollywood Jesus)

“Wonder after Grimy Wonder.” – Fernando F. Croce (CinePassion)

“The Violence Inflicted on the Various Characters throughout the Film (which includes GOUGING, STABBING, THROAT RIPPING, DISMEMBERMENT, AND DECAPITATION) is nothing Compared to the Violence Fulci Inflicts on Logic and Storytelling.”

-James Kendrick (Q Network FIlm Desk)

Enjoy.

We Hope You Enjoyed This Little Mash Up of Murder and Mutilation as Much as We Did.

Briefest of Plot Summaries:

The Burning Moon depicts a Junkie and Juvenile Delinquent, Named Peter, reading to HIGHLY GRUESOME Bedtime Stories To His Younger Sister (Which are Extremely Inappropriate for Children and Adults Alike) to His Kid Sister.

“The most lethally fucked up dose of depravity you will ever experience.”       -Severin Films

“The cinematic equivalent of humping gravestones after midnight on meth.” – Vice
