Castle of Blood

    Part of
  • BAM Film 2023
  • and
  • Trick or Treat: Halloween at the Movies
Directed by Antonio Margheriti
With Barbara Steele, Georges Rivière, Margrete Robsahm

A lonely traveler meets Edgar Allan Poe in a pub, and Poe issues a challenge: Spend the night in an abandoned castle and win a pile of money. The wager is accepted. But when the traveler arrives at the castle, he finds that it’s not so deserted after all. Dripping with ectoplasm and erotic alchemy, Castle of Blood has everything one could hope for from a highlight of Italian Gothic cinema: death, sex, graveyards, and of course, the unworldly presence of the incomparable Barbara Steele in a career-defining role. Prepare for the spookiest sleepover of your life.
