31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 2: BARON BLOOD 1972 (IMAGE)

Mario Bava directed this classic italian horror film starring Joseph Cotton as the reincarnation of a sadist named Baron Von Kleist. Antonio Cantafora is the young man who attempts to bring his sadistic ancestor back to life and the incredibly sexy Elke Sommer is Eva Arnold, a woman the Baron wants badly.

This is an atmospheric and wonderful little film that has the usual Bava touches of gothic horror and contemporary glitz. This disc is long out of print but I do understand Kino is getting ready to reissue it again, which is cool. Recommended Halloween viewing.
