Black Sunday (1960)
Generally considered to be the foremost example of Italian Gothic horror! Barbara Steele plays Princess Asa, a high priestess of Satan who is gruesomely executed in 1600's Moldavia by having a spiked mask hammered into her face. Before she dies, Asa vows revenge on the family who killed her and returns from the grave two centuries later to keep her promise. In a striking resurrection scene replete with bats, scorpions and fog, Asa rises from the tomb to claim her bloody vengeance. Packed with wonderfully creepy imagery including vampires, bubbling flesh, dank crypts, undead servants and torch-bearing mobs!
