Más Allá de Las Nubes

El jardín de las delicias / The Garden of Delights - by Carlos Saura (1970)

The greedy relatives of an amnesic and paralytic 45 years old millionaire try him to recover his memory by any means. Surreal look at a family's attempts to shock, bully, frighten, coach, and cajole Antonio Cano into regaining his memory and his management powers after an auto accident. He's middle-aged, wealthy, the leader of a family corporation. After the accident he can't remember his Swiss bank account numbers, can't sign documents, and can't lead his board of directors.

Rare Spanish trash here from the director of the Paul Naschy flick NIGHT OF THE HOWLING BEAST, Miguel Iglesias Bonns. Originally titled LA ISLA DE LAS VIRGENES ARDIENTES (ISLAND OF THE WILD VIRGINS), this one has topless island Amazonians kicking ass, and like the ad says, "Every man who touched them died in an orgy of blood!"

Man-out-of-time Count Cagliostro, dressed to the 19th-century gills, tools into town in a horse-drawn wagon attended by a grim reaper. This occult villain stands in stark contrast to the futuristic laboratory of his new partner-in-crime Dr. Raymond. Together they seek a uranium-like ore, and to harvest the deadly fuel Cagliostro uses a magic spell from an ancient Egyptian scroll to revive the corpses of those who died in the silver mines.

A masked Zorro-like character travels the West, battling monsters and protecting the innocent in this 1965 Horror/ Western Cult Classic. The Masked Rider fights an ugly witch, a bat-headed Vampire, a Headless Zombie, living skeletons and one of the hairiest Werewolves ever to appear in a horror movie, all in a style reminiscent of the old Universal Horror Films of the 1940’s.

A small Mexican village faces the disappearance of a corpse. The dead man’s brother goes out to find his detective friend, a cowboy. However, he is killed by a gang that seeks to get the insurance money from the policy put on the dead man by his aunt. Meanwhile, a strange fish-man monster is stalking our heroes with the intent to kill! Can the cowboy solve the mystery in time?

The Knight Templars return in this fourth installment of the Blind Dead seris. On this outing, the Templars haunt a fishing village, where they rise seven nights every seven years to claim their sacrificial offerings in return for the safety of the townspeople.
