The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Horror Rises from the Tomb (1975)

AKA: Horror From the Tomb

Starring: Paul Naschy, Emma Cohen
Director: Carlos Aured

Premise:
A group of people on an island find the buried head of a warlock. The head comes back to life and possesses others to find his body.

My Take:
The movie definitely has the 70's Euro-Horor feel as it drips sexiness and mystery. Not everything makes sense and in fact, most of is rather outlandish, but the cast plays it straight and it adds to the dread (or what little there is).

Rating:In the middle
