Review

With a cast of characters that includes American master of the macabre Edgar Allan Poe (played by a modern-day actor, you silly), Castle of Blood (1964) is a chilling and atmospheric black-and-white excursion into the realm of lost souls, some of whom flutter about with their netherworldly boobies bobbling out. One of the earliest examples of the oft-mined haunted-house genre wherein a nonbeliever bets he can last the night in a structure supposedly inhabited by wraiths of the dead, Castle of Blood is an artful, Italian-language evocation of creepiness and dread. Comfort and succor will be found in the ample and exposed bosoms of Barbara Steele and Silvia Sorrente.
