Black Sabbath (1963). A superb trilogy from the inimitable Mario Bava. The set designs are wonderfully rich, setting scene for its rich colors and great camera work. The tales themselves are simple though effective, with lots of eye candy to keep your eyes glued to the terror. Eroticism is used to further this lure, which must have gotten the attention of the morality police of the day. Boris Karloff blesses one of the tales as a creepy father whose love of family might just lead to their demise. This was simple great, classic Italian horror fun. Ashe.
