Movie Reviews of Nightmare Castle
Movie Review: If you are a fan of 60s Italian Horror films, then buy this NOW!
Summary: 5 Stars
As a big fan of the "golden age" of Italian horror films, I had a pretty rough copy of this movie I'd bought and assumed it was never going to get any better. Luckily, Severin Films managed to get hold of the original negative and create what is surely the ultimate edition of NIGHTMARE CASTLE. The film itself drags in places and the plot about a scientist who has a cure for aging long before Botox, Retin-A and plastic surgery is kind of silly at times but it's worth it for the great creepy climax. The cinematography is something I really failed to appreciate fully until seeing this incredible transfer. The transfer is great and evidently, they cut quite a bit out of this in order to fit into late-night television time slots. Thankfully, it is fully restored and has great extras like interviews with the director and Barbara Steele. Also, this has the first horror score from Ennio Morricone and it really enhances the mood. As I said before, I never appreciated the lighting too much on the old transfer but this is one beautifully shot movie. The make-up and special effects are excellent too. I knew I was going to buy this as soon as I heard about it but if you are on the fence about it, I assure you that if you have not seen NIGHTMARE CASTLE as presented by Severin Films, then you really have not seen it. I'm glad to have this pristine version in my collection and I recommend it to others who appreciate 1960s Italian horror films.
