5.0 out of 5 stars A superb DVD release of an obscure film, October 21, 2004

By	Lunar Strain "Thrash, don't mind if I do" (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Horror Rises From the Tomb (DVD)

First of all, I am the type of person that likes to view rare and obscure horror flicks, hence why I bought Horror Rises From the Tomb on a whim. I was totally surprised by the DVD when it arrived. First of all, its a two disc set with three versions of the movie! The first disc contains the international uncut version in Full Screen and a version called the "Clothed" version in Widescreen. The "Clothed" version is easily the best looking of the three version and looks really crisp for a 30+ year old relatively unknown film. Unlike the "uncut" version, the "clothed" version actually contains alternate sequences that have many of the nude women "clothed", and also contains some alternate edits to cut down on the nudity. The "uncut" international version contains all the gore and nudity, but the negative doesn't look near as good as the "cloth" version. It's still easily worth having. The second disc contains yet a third version of the film which is a full screen transfer fo the U.S. cut release. This is easily the worst as it cuts out all the nudity and gore and the negative looks absolutly terrible. There is also a slew of extras included on the second disc including still gallaries, trailers, and bios. All this came housed in a double keep case that slipped nicely in a cardboard slipcase. I was totally blown away that such an obscure film would get released so nicely on DVD, since more popular movies by bigger distributors usually are unleashed in bare bone releases. If your a fan of rare Euro horror flicks such as Tombs Of The Blind Dead and The Beyond, then you will not be disappointed by this DVD release. If Child's Play 3 and Freddy Vs. Jason are what you consider to be difinitive horror films, then Horror Rises From the Tomb won't be your cup of tea.

5.0 out of 5 stars Naschy's Masterpiece, January 17, 2005

By	B. Lee "Movie Buff" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Horror Rises From the Tomb (DVD)

Horror rises from the tomb is one of the greatest Spanish horror films to date. I recommend watching the uncut european version that this DVD collection provides. All of Naschy's horror films are reminicent of the old Universal and Hamer horror films, except they usually have more gore and nudity. Horror rises from the tomb is no exception.

5.0 out of 5 stars Distilled essence of Eurosleaze, July 25, 2004

By	DrSpecter (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Horror Rises From the Tomb (DVD)

This is my favorite Naschy flick. It's a total boobfest, in every sense of the term. It splices together every Eurohorror cliche (including some choice topless scenes and bad dubbing) into a really fun mess! Example: On the way to a remote castle, our heros are stopped in their cars by a group of highwaymen who intend to rob them. BUT a group of vigilantes from the town catch up with the robbers at that moment, hanging them from a near-by tree. Feeling awkward, our heros leave, continuing towards the castle. This scene doesn't appear to relate to anything else in the movie. Bunuel would have been proud of Carlos Aured.

Negative five stars!
