Fangs of the Living Dead(1969)


Director: Amando de Ossorio
Rating: PG

A young girl becomes the new countess of her uncle's castle, and she is soon to be revealed of the dark family secrets that will haunt her, and that the people surrounding her are vampires. 

The movie starred Anita Ekberg as Sylvia, Diana Lorys as Bertha, and Julián Ugarte as Uncle. 

"Fangs of the Living Dead" was a pretty typical film for the foreign horror flicks of the time with its noticeable dubbing, and campy nature, but for some reason I was drawn to be more attracted than usual to this one. While it isn't a masterpiece in any sense, it was never boring, and it had some really great shots of cinematography to make it look more professional. There were some really elaborate sets also, and the almost seductive tone from the vampires brought a certain edge to the overall product. 

If you are a fan of B horror movies, then this is definitely worth a watch. It's not one of the all time greats, but it is a guaranteed good time that you won't want to miss. 

Grade: 7/10(a good B-movie)
