Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film and the other three horror films that were in the same package were originally supposed to be made entirely in Mexico City in 1968. At that time, Boris Karloff was suffering from pneumonia and only had half of one lung (both the other half and the other lung had been removed due to cancer), and his doctors had told him not to travel to Mexico City because of the thin air at its high altitude. All of Karloff's scenes for all four of these films were shot on a soundstage in Hollywood in 1968 as a result.
- Quotes
Anabella Vandenberg: Modern science has shown that alcohol is responsible for ninety-nine point two percent of all the world's sins.
- Crazy creditsIn the closing credits, Boris Karloff is billed twice, once as Damballa and then as Carl van Molder.
- Alternate versionsFor the DVD version of this film titled "Cult of the Dead", the second scene in it, the one of the zombie revival, is abridged.

Slow Spanish Schlock Worth Seeing For Sexy Tongolele
I Bought this film on DVD a couple of days ago not expecting much, and my intuitions were correct. Very slow with dialog that goes all over the place. We never get a grasp of where the film is taking place, who are these people and why anyone is doing what they do. Master horror icon Boris Karloff is basically exploited for name recognition (something that would happen quite frequently in the later stages of his career)and has little if anything to do. His relationship to the cult and how it evolves is never explained. The only reason I finished this sleep enhancer is the sexy dancing of Mexican actress (and exotic dancer) Yolanda Montes billed here as Tongolele. Nearly forty years old at the time it was made, Tongolele still possessed a knockout figure and sexy aura. Her two dance sequences are the only thing that will keep you awake while trying to finish off this turkey.
