looking for film, old black and white horror
 

i remember i was up late one night, i switched to sbs, and there was this horror movie where a women was being sacrficed or something, she had been tied to a big wooden pole surrounded by these hooded people with flaming torches and the usual ritualistic scenery, and she screamed in a desperate scared foriegn language (russian?) the subtitles said something like, "i will take revenge on you, i will place a curse..." and so on
THEN they put a metal mask on her, then they smash the mask into her face with a big mallet, and blood comes out of the eyes and mouth of the mask..

i would really appreciate it if someone could tell me the name of this film!

Hmm, I don't recognize it... it's probably a witch movie (Haunted!)...


Do you have any idea what decade it was?

La Maschera del Demonio (aka The Mask of Satan, Black Sunday) :cool:






one for the moat

I'm fairly certain it was The Great Gatsby.

That's the one, for sure. The art direction of this one heavily influenced Tim Burton's style - it's beautiful

one of my favorites and one of my votes for "the next HDC 100"

Thankyou!
 

thats the one! i had been been searching the internet for hours with no luck... the movie had been on my mind slightly for the past few years because i would search for it when i went to video stores hoping i would remember the title if i saw the cover or something.

thankyou! :)

We know:cool:

I confirm :D

It belongs on any top 100 horror list, I'd say. And in the collections of most horror lovers.
