Beast Of Blood is a 1970 horror film that was shot in the Philippines. It's got a story by Beverly Miller and a screenplay by director Eddie Romero. It's a sequel to The Mad Doctor Of Blood Island. I haven't seen that film and it's not available at Netflix. Kane W Lynn, of Hemisphere Pictures, is the executive producer. They made a series of low budget pictures in the Philippines. Horror and war, mostly. Eddie Romero worked with them on their pictures, sometimes as writer and/or director, sometimes behind the scenes. Eddie had been in the business for a while when this was made.
John Ashley is Dr Bill Foster, Celeste Yarnall is Myra J Russell and Eddie Garcia is Dr Lorca. The doc has created a monster and then he's cut off it's head. He keeps it alive in a special juice of his own design. That's the head in the picture above. Pretty ugly beast, huh. I did like the poster for Le Bestia Di Sangue.
Foster and the good guys bring destruction to Lorca and his lab. The journey wasn't as good as I had hoped. It's another I wouldn't recommend to anyone who isn't interested in low budget horror films.
The DVD was so poor, I barely got it going when it started to skip. I managed to get to the end of the film but I couldn't get to the extras so I returned it along with the Brain Of Blood. It had the same issues. I was looking forward to the commentary by Samuel M Sherman and an interview with Celeste Yarnall. Both DVDs came from Alpha Video. They are a low budget DVD house that specializes in poor quality DVDs of mostly public domain material. They imported this DVD content from a previous vendor and burned it onto a DVDr, then they sold it to Amazon, who sold it to me. Now it's gone back home to Amazon, who will refund my money. I don't know if Amazon returns stuff to the vendors. I'd be curious about that but I don't know anyone that works there. No matter, the important thing is to avoid Alpha Video DVDs.
