synopsis
With Spanish cinema still under the oppressive Franco regime, four filmmakers banded together to create a horror anthology that examined classic themes through transgressive perceptions: Tarot stars Julián Ugarte (All the Colors of the Dark) in a grim tale of fanaticism set in the Middle Ages. Eusebio Poncela and Marisa Paredes star in Victor Frankenstein, a unique take on Mary Shelley’s classic directed by Emilio Martínez-Lázaro. Terror Among Christians, directed by Francesc Bellmunt, is a jolting vampire allegory set during Roman times. Jaime Chávarri – co-writer of Vampyros Lesbos and future icon of New Spanish Cinema – directs the twisted ghost story The Dance starring Luis Ciges (The Creature).
