Description
In 15th century France, the warlock Alaric de Marnac is beheaded for crimes against humanity and his equally vile mistress viciously killed, but not before the pair put a curse upon the decedents of their executioners. So starts HORROR RISES FROM THE TOMB, one of Paul Naschy's most gruesome and sensational films. With its midnight séances, the undead rising from marshes, generous doses of nudity, blood-drenching heart-ripping and eerie atmosphere, HORROR RISES FROM THE TOMB rightfully deserves its place as a hallmark of euro-horror. * For the first time on home video, a classic horror film available in its most complete and uncut original version ever! * New High Definition transfer from the Original Negative for superior picture quality!!!

Above-average cult horror film.......2007-06-13
This film has a very subdued feeling to it which is, I am sure by now, related to the fact that I've been watching the edited version. Despite this, the film is mildly interesting in its storyline, although it seems to borrow somehow from Bava's "Black Sunday." I liked the acting in this film, and I liked the imagery. The zombies were also a bit eerie, without having to do very much at all. I think this qualifies as an above-average cult horror film.
Classic Naschy Lunacy.......2007-03-24
"Horror Rises From the Tomb" is a 70s favorite that used to play heavily edited on Chicago TV. The unrated version of the movie certainly came as a surprise! The DVD includes three versions of the film: the U.S. theatrical release, an uncut international release, and a "clothed" version. The preferred version is the "clothed" one since it's presented in widescreen from a German DVD release, but you'll want to see the unrated one to see how much nudity was removed from the U.S. cut. For the price, this disc is well worth it. If you're a fan of this movie, the DVD is a must.
Naschy's Masterpiece.......2005-01-17
Horror rises from the tomb is one of the greatest Spanish horror films to date. I recommend watching the uncut european version that this DVD collection provides. All of Naschy's horror films are reminicent of the old Universal and Hamer horror films, except they usually have more gore and nudity. Horror rises from the tomb is no exception.
A superb DVD release of an obscure film.......2004-10-22
First of all, I am the type of person that likes to view rare and obscure horror flicks, hence why I bought Horror Rises From the Tomb on a whim. I was totally surprised by the DVD when it arrived. First of all, its a two disc set with three versions of the movie! The first disc contains the international uncut version in Full Screen and a version called the "Clothed" version in Widescreen. The "Clothed" version is easily the best looking of the three version and looks really crisp for a 30+ year old relatively unknown film. Unlike the "uncut" version, the "clothed" version actually contains alternate sequences that have many of the nude women "clothed", and also contains some alternate edits to cut down on the nudity. The "uncut" international version contains all the gore and nudity, but the negative doesn't look near as good as the "cloth" version. It's still easily worth having. The second disc contains yet a third version of the film which is a full screen transfer fo the U.S. cut release. This is easily the worst as it cuts out all the nudity and gore and the negative looks absolutly terrible. There is also a slew of extras included on the second disc including still gallaries, trailers, and bios. All this came housed in a double keep case that slipped nicely in a cardboard slipcase. I was totally blown away that such an obscure film would get released so nicely on DVD, since more popular movies by bigger distributors usually are unleashed in bare bone releases. If your a fan of rare Euro horror flicks such as Tombs Of The Blind Dead and The Beyond, then you will not be disappointed by this DVD release. If Child's Play 3 and Freddy Vs. Jason are what you consider to be difinitive horror films, then Horror Rises From the Tomb won't be your cup of tea.
Distilled essence of Eurosleaze.......2004-07-26
This is my favorite Naschy flick. It's a total boobfest, in every sense of the term. It splices together every Eurohorror cliche (including some choice topless scenes and bad dubbing) into a really fun mess! Example: On the way to a remote castle, our heros are stopped in their cars by a group of highwaymen who intend to rob them. BUT a group of vigilantes from the town catch up with the robbers at that moment, hanging them from a near-by tree. Feeling awkward, our heros leave, continuing towards the castle. This scene doesn't appear to relate to anything else in the movie. Bunuel would have been proud of Carlos Aured.
Negative five stars!

Customer Reviews:
very poor transfers ,you can find better copies at cheeper prices if you look.......2006-04-27
i was very disapointed in this set,i know that at cheep price you are going to lose quality, i have bought and reviewed a number of these multi-pack movies ,but these transfers were just the worst i have ever seen. 8 of the movies were unwatchable and when returned they gave me new set and same problem with same movie. even store couldn't get them to play sowatch and look else were for these films.
The listed price is wrong........2006-03-31
I bought this DVD for eight dollars at a Best Buy in Chicago. That's the set retail price as far as I'm concerned. Forty dollars is definitely worth it for all the good movies on here, but any DVD retailer would likely sell it for under ten.
