PACTO DIABOLICO 1968 (SINISTER CINEMA)

John Carradine stars in this fun little Mexican horror film.

Carridine is Dr. Halbeck, a man who has created a serum he hopes will make people ageless. It works, but only a little different than he antiscipated.

He becomes a young man again and calls himself Fred Halbeck and claims to be the nephew of the famous doctor. DiNora Jekyll (Regina Torne) suspects something sinister is going on as Halbeck hasn't been seen since Fred showed up.

However, Fred has a problem as well. Every so often he turns into a deformed monster of a man with killing on his mind.

As you can tell, this is really a Mexican re-telling of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde but done with a few twists. This was the first of 4 quickies that Carradine made in Mexico and it's not too bad at all.

Anyone who is a fan of Miexican cinema knows how bizarre these films can be. I recommend this movie for any horror fan.
