This genre-busting Universal-International effort from 1959, Curse Of The Undead, is a real curio. A unique blending of the Western and Horror Film, it doesn’t cave to the cliches of either — and it’s a better movie for it. Just how much better is probably a matter of taste. Starring Eric Fleming of Rawhide, it was produced by Joseph Gershenson, head of U-I’s music department.
Almost impossibly hard to find, it was once available on VHS. It’s certainly worthy of 79 minutes of your time — just think, cowboys and vampires! — so contact your local bootlegger today.
And dig that Reynold Brown poster art!
Toby, this looks great! No idea if this might be slated for a cheap DVD or anything, huh? Boy I’m gonna have to keep my eye out for it. If I can score a VHS somehow, let m know if you want a copy!
I loved wattch this movie and now I search it but dont find it anywhere for download or to buy
Too bad it’s unavailable…I would love to see it, if only because I love Eric Fleming from “Rawhide” and have yet to see him in anything else.
