Terror Creatures from the Grave

Less than the sum of its gothic-y parts. The whole thing looks and feels like a lifeless (heh) episode of Dark Shadows. We don't even get to see the titular creatures, for crying out loud! For Barbara Steele superfans only.

The film has a very good Gothic atmosphere, the B&W really adds to the feel. A beautifully shot chilling mystery that works well even without really ever showing anything.

Campy and low budget, yet at the same time I really liked it. Creepy and effectively shot with a nice gothic atmosphere and good cast. Just don't expect to see much of these "terror creatures." The version I rented (slightly longer dubbed U.S. version) was in absolutely terrible condition, but I've read it's out now in HD on Blu-ray. This should be a cult classic if it's not already.

Average Italian gothic with Barbara Steele. A little too generic for its own good, but there's some striking photography.
