Barbara Steele's face is a very recognizable one to a fan of horror. I remember seeing that face with puncture wounds in the pages of Famous Monsters. I had never seen the film that face was from, until now.
"Black Sunday" is an excellent horror film. It is an Italian film that is dubbed into English. The audio sounds a little off because of the dub, but it doesn't hurt the film overall.
The film is a great vampire horror story, which at times is very scary. Barbara Steele comes back to life to take over the body of her relative. Another vampire comes back from the grave to help bring his lost love (Steele) to life. This other vampire was very scary, but I wish his face was more hideous. It would have added another dimension of fear.
"Black Sunday" is a classic horror film that combines myths of vampires and witchcraft. Director Tim Burton has said that this is his favorite horror film and I can see why.
A- I recommend it.
