Horror of the Blood Monsters (trailer)

[KaijuEigaMan88]

This is a surefire contender for worst movie of all time. You know a movie is bad when all the scenes that contain any kind of action (or lack thereof, in the case of Horror of the Blood Monsters) are stock footage from other movies. Amazing how Z-grade movie directors were still getting mileage out of One Million B.C. stock footage even in 1970.

[Blahblobify]

John Carradine was in this?

So sad, he must have really been hard up to do this piece of shit.

[Bizarronumber4]

Has Brother Theodore got an asthma attack at the begining?!

[MyrielAchalott]

1:50 : Dr Zoidbergs Ancestors =D

[alkksda]

This movie is possibly the weirdest movie ever...except for Manos: Hands of Fate...

[Tareltonlives]

Kinda ambitious for an extremely cheap Vampire movie

[Lexx2]

I suspect the makers of this were ON something called "Spectrum X" when they made this!

[darklordcaos]

los vampiros voladores, parecian pirañitas

The black and white Filipino cave man movie footage around which this was built was filmed in 1956. The main space expedition footage was shot in 1966. Additional footage was shot between 1966-69 to explain the chromatic radiation (the original plan was to tint it all red but this caused the test audience to fall asleep), and then the shot the vampire footage at the very end. Finally, footage from 1940's "One Million BC" was used as scenes taken from other movies.

LOL at the same scream used over and over again in this one clip

[Metaldog67]

flying eddie munsters!! lmao!

[Bizarronumber4]

This looks great! I've never seen this film,but I want to!

[Snurremegrundt]

The trailer needs more female screaming.

[2rani]

Actually this is from 1970. Not mid 80's to late 80's.

[only257]

cheesiest trailer ever!

[MovieCreep96]

rock on, brother theodore

[billdapony]

It sounds like they got Ren Hoek to do the narration!

"You eeeediot."

[KarenEvette]

I LITERALLY LOL'ed when I read your comment! :)

[only257]

agreed billdapony!

[blackferret64]

Actually, it REALLY sounds like the guy who did Gollum in the animated Rankin/Bass "The Hobbit" and "Return of the King" movies.

[Skulldini]

@blackferret64 Theodore Gotlieb A.K.A. "Brother Theodore"

[hypnodance]

ROTFLMAO! :D  Is this a comedy?

[JogurtTalbain]

This is THE movie =D

[prospectus91]

"Gruesome + Ghastly" = Instant sell! Gimmee!

[radiodarkhorse]

Very funny!

[4evor13]

lol

[keslerkaiyu]

Why is it that in all these stupid vampire movies, the fang mark on the neck never match up to the vampire's mouth. Stupid directors..

[frightfan1]

Wow,first saw this at the drive-in Summer of 1970.Then I watched it again on tv as VAMPIRE MEN OF THE LOST PLANET.Finally in 1982 at a dusk to dawn five feature drive-in spooktacular I saw the film yet again under the title NIGHT OF THE HOWLING BEASTS. Fun times!

[snakes3425]

Uh,are those suppose to be Vampires or rejects from the Weekly World News?

[kindersczenen]

1970? The music and look of most of the footage (obviously from other movies) looks so much older. And is there a movie John Carradine HASN'T been in? Geez!

[TheAvengingBrain]

Awesome. Simply awesome.

[tracyterry]

al adamson at his finest

[ExRhodesian]

Its rather sad Alan Adamson was himself killed by a foreman doing renovations to his house and buried in the living room.Now he can never make a comeback only in our hearts.

[deadenddrivein]

yeah that blows. at least we still have ray dennis steckler with us.

[jack2breeze]

a friend of mine met Al a few months before he died at a convention.

[lazydrongo]

cool, what a privilege, I enjoyed his movies immensely. That scumbag foremanm recently they had the incident on a crime show on pay tv here in Aust. The bastard almost got away with it.

[Wcross34]

"Spectrum-X" means "badly tinted". Good old Al. Never mind "Citizen Kane", this is what cinema was invented for!

[BlackStarAbyss]

LOL! The wrestling lizards looked kinky! haha.

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

So it's different movie monsters in 1 film? 1st comment/2nd rating.

[deadenddrivein]

that's one reason why al adamson flicks are such a great value - you often get two or three movies put together all for the price of one!

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

Al Adamson made this movie?

[scotpens]

More like he stitched it together from bits of three different movies. It's a Frankenfilm!

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

That's a good 1 scotpens. :)

[deadenddrivein]

kinda. the bulk of the footage is from a 1965 filipino caveman movie that al bought, and then shot additional footage for using some of his cast regulars. i think the "dinosaur" footage was borrowed from yet another film. the actual movie is a lot more confusing than the trailer makes it out to be! you can find more details by checking the IMDb, or the site DVD Drive-In (not my site, btw. look for a link from the external reviews page of HORROR's IMDb entry)...

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

I would look up information on the IMDb website from time to time. :) You seem to know allot about the movie. :)

[lovecraft231]

The dinosaur footage is from Hal Roache's 1940's movie "One Million B.C." That footage has been recycled by tons of no budget movies (such as "Robot Monster")

[Bizarronumber4]

@deadenddrivein I think the 'dinosaur' footage is from ONE MILLION B.C. Of course footage from that flick was used in lots of b-movies.

[deadenddrivein]

well it IS a classic after all, haha. i almost forgot that the psychedelic space footage was ripped from the equally amazing grade-Z turd, THE WIZARD OF MARS.

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

It's fun to see low budget sci-fi movies such as these. Speaking of Mars did you hear a vast of water has just been discovered in Mars?

[deadenddrivein]

i had not heard that. did they by chance also discover any cave-dwelling midgets dressed as bats?

[GOTHMIDNIGHTMERMAID]

No Lol!
