(1961) Eugenia Balaure, Haralambie Boros, Emil Botta, Florin Piersic.  This is perhaps the most surrealistic, offbeat sci-fi film ever made.  It starts with a man accidentally walking into a nuclear test area.  He is apprehended by a squad of men dressed like spacemen, all of whom are holding big ray guns.  He is soon released, but later finds himself the recipient of a fantastic, futuristic suitcase nuclear bomb...

(1968) Mauro Parenti, Lucretia Love, Gordon Mitchell, John Karlsen.   The title character is a masked superhero very much in the mold as Diabolik.  There’s a great pre-credit sequence where he takes on a shipload of drug dealers.  Our hero then pops in and out the rest of the way as he searches for a magical golden relic, all the while trying to keep the bad guys from looting King Tut’s treasures...

(1967) Andre Reybaz, Georges Douking, Francois Vibert, Magali Noel, Francoise Winskill.  This is a fantastic film filled with a plethora of haunting Images.   It is almost too deep to describe in a simple synopsis.  Let it suffice to say that the story deals with a gem-carver in old Prague who becomes entangled in a web of murder plots and other strange supernatural happenings...

(1961) Kirk Morris, Cathia Caro, Ljubica Otasevic, Cesare Fantoni.  Sword and sandal movies are kind of like B-westerns, there were a gazillion of them made, all using the same half dozen scripts.  In this one, an evil queen suppresses her subjects and steals young virgins to be sacrificed to an evil god of a volcano.  Naturally, Maciste intercedes.  However, he soon falls under the magic spell of the queen, who lusts for his finely chiseled body... 

(1945) Rauli Tuomi, Regina Linnanheimo, Kaija Rahola.  Although this is only marginally a horror film, it is an elegant gothic thriller, filled with old world charm and mysterious goings-on.  The plot revolves around a gathering of people in a creepy mansion, all of whom are seeking answers to an age-old family curse.  What are the secrets of the haunted wing of the mansion?

(1976) Bernard Horsfall, Clive Swift, Glyn Houston, Thorley Walters, Simon Oates.  This is a great British made-for-TV feature.  A has-been actor lowers himself to playing a monster in a horror movie.  The monster is known as “the Dummy” and the costume is ridiculous.  However, when the man who stole the actor’s wife shows up on set, the actor starts believing he really is a terrifying monster...
