SOUND OF HORROR (1964)


"Try to be patient with her, Stravos, she's only an amateur and a woman"

Early Spanish monster/adventure movie(released here in American on a double bill with Mario Bava's KILL BABY KILL") about a group of cave explorers who set loose an invisible, blood-drinking, screeching dinosaur.  Saving money on any monster FX this movie instead contains a bunch of invisible footprints and silly stuff like the scene where the prehistoric beast is hit with axes and then they appear to just float through the air for a while.  The cast includes Soledad Miranda who would go on to star in a bunch of Jess Franco sex romps like VAMPYROS LESBOS before dying in a car crash.and the debut of Ingrid Pitt who would go on to star in some Hammer lesbian vampire movies.  Although as expected this is cheesy and badly dubbed in places it does somehow manage to be kind of creepy in places as well.  When the group lock themselves up in a house it even has that NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD feel to it.  Despite it's absurd premise I found this to be a  watchable waste of time for trash film fans.
