Review

"Horror Rises From The Tomb" is quite similar to "The Loreley's Grasp" in that it deals with infamous legends (in this case a sorcerer and sorceress) being resurrected. Vowing to seek revenge before their initial deaths, the two villains stay true to their words and begin to kill and rip out hearts. While the film suffers from the usual horror cliches (senseless characters, buckets of blood, constant nudity), there are genuinely chilling moments here. The psychotic, murderous men in the woods scene near the beginning was creepy and atmospheric. It's a shame the horror film didn't center around those characters, however, as the movie would have been far more memorable. What's more frightening than the actions HUMANS are capable of? Certainly not a mind-controlling, blood-thirsty sorcerer and sorceress. Extras: An introduction by Paul Naschy, a theatrical trailer, a Spanish credit sequence, a liner notes booklet, a still gallery, nearly 9 minutes of alternate scenes cutting out the nudity, and a tin-cannish sounding commentary track by Paul Naschy, Carlos Aured, and Angel Gomez Rivero.
