This tale of betrayal and gruesome vengeance is based on the writings of Edgar Allan Poe. An attorney arrives at a gothic castle to settle the estate of a dead man who could summon the souls of ancient plague victims. The widow and her terrified daughter inform him that the castle is haunted by the dead man's spirit. One by one the occupants of the castle - friends and family who betrayed him - die a festering, torturous and violent death, leaving only the daughter and her lover to escape their dreadful fate.

Great Movie.
This movie was filmed in 1965, so it is a black and white thriller with a very high quality in picture and sound. Because many of the old movies lose picture and sound, so it is not the case of this film. Besides has a great atmosphere and special effects for the time.

Not quite as advertised
I haven't given myself the chance to view the disc itself, but there are some caveats for potential buyers: First, the back says the film is 61 minutes in length; the Amazon description indicates an hour and 25 minutes, or 85 total minutes. So -- are 24 minutes missing, or cut? Or does the wrap-around label list incorrect timing? Also: This, as has been mentioned in other reviews, is a DVD-R, not mentioned in any of the descriptive information.

Wrong picture on the box
This review is for the DVD Terror-Creatures from the Grave - Digitally Remastered, from Mutant Sorority Pictures. The movie on this DVD is Terror-Creatures from the Grave. The picture on the box, and the credits listed on the box, are from a movie called Nightmare Castle (aka The Faceless Monster). Nightmare Castle is not on this DVD.The image quality of this movie is okay, but not great. I haven't seen any other prints of this movie, so I can't compare it to other copies. The image quality is better than many other "old" movies like this that I've seen - it's very watchable.The sound quality is good. I didn't have any problem understanding most of the dialog.I'm only giving 4 stars because of the wrong picture and credits on the box. Otherwise, all Barbara Steele movies get 5 stars as far as I'm concerned.

An Unwatchably Bad Print
This, like most of these discs of old Barbara Steele movies, has wretched picture quality, as if videotaped from a TV broadcast and then subjected to generations of recopying. I found it unwatchable. I don't think I'll order anything from that area/era again unless there is some indication that the movie has been restored or remastered.

Barbara Steele
I ordered this specifically because Barbara Steele was in it. She and the movie, did not disappoint! A must see for horror fans!

The Worst Barbara Steele Movie
Plodding and predictable. I took me two attempts to watch this, and the second time, I had to fast forward about halfway through to get to the decent climax. I have enjoyed all of Barbara Steele's movies (except She Beast). This is easily the worst. Not recommended.
