Haunted House giallo/thriller with Evelyn Stewart

director: Francisco Lara Polop
starring: Evelyn Stewart · Analia Gade ·Andres Resino · Ingrid Garbo · Eduardo Fajardo

A group of strangers, lost in the fog on an isolated back road, are forced to spend the night in a mansion located on the edge of a cemetery. A typical plot in the old-dark-house formula, but things start taking an unusual twist when the hostess of the house begins telling everybody about vampires and local legends. Some truly unique ideas and a couple real scares in this cult giallo from Spain's prolific horror period.

Evelyn Stewart was born Ida Galli. She began her acting career under that name in 1960 with a role in Federico Fellini's "La Dolce Vita." She was Isli Oberon for Mario Bava's "Whip and the Body" and then Priscilla Steel for "Assault on Fort Texan." In 1965, she became Evelyn Stewart in BLOOD FOR A SILVER DOLLAR and remained 'Evelyn' for another 50 films - mostly Westerns and Thrillers - before retiring in 1991.
