Nightmare Castle1965

At the height of her career as the dark goddess of Italian horror, the legendary Barbara Steele delivered two of her most memorable performances in this tale of obsession, madness and depravity. Steele stars as a cheating wife who is chained, whipped and tortured to death by her sadistic scientist husband and as her unstable blonde stepsister whose fate may be even more ghastly. Paul Muller, Helga Liné and Rik Battaglia co-star in this twisted shocker directed by Mario Caiano, featuring stunning black and white cinematography by Enzo Barboni and the very first horror score by Ennio Morricone. [Unfortunately, NIGHTMARE CASTLE is presently only available with an English-dubbed dialogue track. Dubbing is generally avoided whenever possible (though not an option in this particular instance).]
