Danza Macabra Volume Five: The Spanish Gothic (Blu-ray)

For Volume Five of this "essential Euro-Gothic series" (Mondo Digital), Severin Films returns to the cemeteries, catacombs and cobwebbed castles of Spanish cinema for an all-new exploration of gothic horror excellence: In the North American Disc Premiere of 1964's STRANGE VOYAGE, director Fernando Fernán Gómez crafts a macabre true-crime shocker featuring a poignant performance by none other than Jess Franco. The disturbing 1971 drama EXORCISM'S DAUGHTER is presented in its complete U.S. Version - now featuring the infamous orgy sequence - as well as the original Spanish Version LAS MELANCÓLICAS, both on disc for the first time ever. THE DRACULA SAGA is 1973's grisly reinvention of vampiric damnation from the legendary León Klimovsky, uncut in North America for the first time ever. And in 1985's acclaimed THE TURN OF THE SCREW, controversial director Eloy de la Iglesia adapts Henry James' classic novella with a startling psychosexual twist. Each film in this collection has been scanned from original camera negatives or archival 35mm prints, with 10+ combined hours of new audio commentaries, video essays, interview featurettes and more.
