THE NORTH AMERICAN DISC PREMIERE

Inspired by Universal's 1940s monster mash-ups, writer/director Jess Franco instead delivered 'a weird and wonderful masterpiece that transports you to a world like no other' (Scream Magazine): With minimal dialogue and maximum gothic atmosphere, Franco crafts a fever dream of erotic horror in which Count Dracula (Howard Vernon of DELICATESSEN), Dr. Frankenstein (Dennis Price of TWINS OF EVIL), his assistant Morpho and Frankenstein's monster battle gypsies, showgirls, Dr. Seward and a wolfman. Alberto Dalbés (THE EROTIC RITES OF FRANKENSTEIN), Carmen Yazalde (A VIRGIN AMONG THE LIVING DEAD) and Geneviève Robert (star of Franco's DEVIL'S ISLAND LOVERS and the future Mrs. Ivan Reitman) co-star in 'a fantastic experience for those who respect Franco's demented vision' (Mondo Exploito), now scanned in 4K from Spanish, French and German release prints to create the longest and most comprehensive version known to exist.
