Black Sabbath (1963)
BLACK SABBATH (1963) ¢ ¢ 1/2
D: Mario Bava
Boris Karloff, Mark Damon, Michèle Mercier,
Lidia Alfonsi, Susy Andersen, Jacqueline Pierreux
Three tales of the supernatural, introduced by (who else?) Boris Karloff, which is a little like watching three episodes of Karloff's old "Thriller" television show. In the first segment, a nurse steals a ring from the finger of a corpse, and lives (but not long) to regret it. The second has a woman terrorized by a voice on the telephone. The third is a vampire story starring Boris himself. Ironically, that one's the least frightening. The first is the shortest and the best.
