Tombs of the Blind Dead


Tombs of the Blind Dead is a 1971 Spanish horror film written and directed by Amando de Ossorio. Its original Spanish title is La noche del terror ciego, which means The Night of the Blind Terror. The film is the first in Ossorios Blind Dead series, and its success helped kickstart the Spanish horror film boom of the early 70s.citation needed

Although the Knights are identifiable by their uniforms, they are never called Templars in the film they are referred to as Knights from the East. Ossorio objected to the description of the revenant Templars as zombies, insisting that they more resembled mummies who feed like vampires and that, unlike zombies, the Templars were not mindless corpses.citation needed The Spanish version, La Noche del Terror Ciego, differs from the English version Tombs of the Blind Dead. In the English version, a flashback of the living Knights Templar torturing a victim is moved to the beginning of the film, and most of the gore in particular, a sequence on a train in which a woman is murdered in front of her child is removed. ........
