Francesco Mirabelli

•
An esteemed provincial doctor kills, by throwing him off a cliff, the evil twin necromancer. However, he rises from the tomb as a blood-sucking monster and, with the help of a wicked servant, threatens the life of his young niece. Poor independent horror film, low-budget and nothing interesting. The only positive note is the brilliant performance of "George Zucco" who plays the role of both brothers. Not recommended.
