the version of this film i saw be title horror rise from the tomb . the horror in question be a wicked medieval magician play by spanish horror legend paul naschy look like he play abanazer in a church hall panto . he rise from his tomb when a stupid descendant ( i think he a descendant and a he also play by naschy ) return to his ancestral home and reunite the magician head and body and which have be separate by by the witchfinders who execute him and in an attempt to stop him and er and rise from the tomb . obviously and once head and body be back together all hell break loose and lot of people die . like all good magician and abanazer here have a lovely assistant . this one play by another spanish horror great and the beautiful helga line . like practically every other woman in the film line periodically get her kit off . there a lot of nudity in this film and and not just female we even get to see naschy paunchy body and which isn not a pretty sight and i can tell you . most of the film sex angle be laughably gratuitous . there one particularly funny scene where naschy and line discuss their evil plan and then suddenly decide to both have a grope of the nubile young blonde they have possess . it also pretty gory in place notably a herschell gordon lewis esquire moment where line plunge her hand into a man chest to remove his heart . the best part of the film be the pretty effective zombie who turn up towards the end . theyre quickly scar off by a fire though and and do not bother come back . which be a shame . the scene where the zombie rise and however and be the film most ludicrously inept moment . it all happen in long shot and and we haven not really get a clue what happen until we see some figure shamble on from the distance . there be several rubbish moment like this and thanks largely to poor editing . when a labourer fall under the hypnotic spell of naschy head there a big close up of his face that seem to last forever and serve no purpose whatsoever . all in all and not a great horror film and but entertain enough . of course and the version i saw be a dubbed american version that have probably be chop to piece . for all i know and the original spanish version could be a masterpiece .
