Description:
The police cannot solve the mystery of seven murders which have alarmed the inhabitants of a small village. They call in Inspector Doren of Interpol. The only clue the local constable can give his young and famous colleague is the fact that, each time a murder was committed , the electric lights in the whole neighborhood went out. The villagers believe that the murders of the young girls are linked to the vague shadows in the caves under the local castle and to the mysterious curse of the green eyes. They distrust the Inspector and offer no assistance when still another murder takes place at the village inn--in the room next to the detective's--and the body disappears. Doren moves to the castle, where Professor Adelsberg is carrying out some scientific studies. There he meets the professor's pretty assistant, Karin. She is marked as the next victim, but the Inspector is able to thwart the murderer. As Doren closes in, he barely escapes with his own life, but he manages to discover the secret of the caves of the living dead and to unmask the culprit.

Rating:  - ENTERTAINING LITTLE VAMPIRE FILM!
Interesting entry to gothic/Euro/vampire series of the 1960's, this b&w little gem has alot going for it such as odd characters: mute menace, weird village doctor, amiable/alcoholic tavern keeper, black man-servent of great strength; a breezy jazz soundtrack; some outstanding set design (caveren/tombs) and nice camera work.

Rating:  - CURSE OF THE GREEN EYES IS AN UNDERRATED GEM
This neat little vampire flick---known in Europe as CURSE OF THE GREEN EYES---is one of those rare films that although made on a small budget, manages to catch lightning in bottle. As is often the case, those involved probably didn't even realize what was so special about the film they'd made.
The film is a fine example of the sexy and imaginative horror movies made in Europe during the 1960s. It features interesting turns on the genre, spooky cinematography and production design, and an ... Read More
Rating: - Stay away from the grotto
Odd film concerned with the mysterious deaths of local villagers. An inspector is sent to the small town to solve the mystery, where he encounters a collection of unusual characters. Before a murder occurs the electricity in town fails and vampire marks are discovered on the victim's necks. In addition, the bodies are also vanishing after the funeral. Upon talking to the locals the inspector discovers that a professor and two assistants have moved into an abandoned castle six months earlier, conducting ... Read More
Rating:  - slow and steady, lost the race
I buy a DVD for the cinema like experience. This title should not be on DVD, buy it on VHS! The experience is the same if you watch this at IMAX or on a little black and white portable TV in the kitchen while you make toast. The movie is OK, but it really does NOT belong on DVD!
