    GARAGEHOUSE PICTURES BRING ITALIAN GOTHIC HORROR TO BLU-RAY

    Peter 'Witchfinder' HopkinsBy Peter 'Witchfinder' Hopkins21st July 2019Updated:21st July 2019No Comments2 Mins Read

    Garagehouse Pictures are set to release WEB OF THE SPIDER, the classic Italian gothic horror ghost story directed by Antonio Margheriti to Blu-ray in October!

    Edgar Allan Poe invites you to spend one night in the WEB OF THE SPIDER!

    Synopsis:


    An intrepid reporter by the name of Alan Foster (Anthony Franciosa, TENEBRE), accepts a wager from Edgar Allan Poe (Klaus Kinski, NOSFERATU THE VAMPIRE) and his companion, Thomas Blackwood, to spend a single night in the reputedly haunted Blackwood Castle on All Souls Eve.  Shortly after settling into the spooky abode, the reporter meets the beautiful Elisabeth Blackwood (Michele Mercier, BLACK SABBATH), and begins to witness ghostly phenomena and visitations from beyond the grave, as an assortment of specters relive the last moments before their ghastly murders.  Soon, Foster realizes that the damned spirits of Blackwood Castle require human blood to continue their unnatural existence! 

    One of the last Italian gothic horror films, WEB OF THE SPIDER is a colour remake of 1964’s CASTLE OF BLOOD, also directed by Antonio Margheriti, under the anglicized alias Anthony M. Dawson.
