T'would appear to be a Super 8 cutdown of Paul Naschy's HORROR RISES FROM THE TOMB, except it doesn't actually say that on the box, and I'm 99% sure that cover photo is not from that film. Seller is no help.

Translating the seller's statement corroborates "Horror Rises From The Tomb", although the box translates as "Most Impressive Horror".

I have the UFA 2X400' cut down of EL ESPANTO SURGE DE LA TUMBA. This may be a 400' digest of it, but the cover photo is from the Naschy film EXORCISMO....

Well, it turns out it was a 200' digest of HORROR RISES FROM THE TOMB with Spanish sound. Now we can all get some sleep.

Furthermore, there was also a Spanish Super 8 digest of EXORCISMO from the same company. Had a different photo on the cover, but at least it was from the right film this time.

I think these might actually be 300' reels, which would make them the only ones in my collection.

It sounds ten times more frightening in Spanish than English [Smile]
