Te Return of Walpurgis is probably one of the best films of the extensive career of Paul Naschy.
The movie enjoys a good quality in terms of settings and sets, costumes and story usually with enough media and actors and with excellent photography and dark lighting.
The direction of the unjustly forgotten Carlos Aured is very appropriate, with accurate plans and a good narrative pulse that is agile and fresh.
The story tells us through a prologue set in the Middle Ages as an inquisitor named Ireneus Daninsky is cursed by members of the Bathory family for interrupting a satanic ritual of these and executed, said curse specifies that if some descendant of Daninsky lineage murders another from the Bathory family this will transform into a horrible monster during full moon nights.
The film has a really sublime and disturbing atmosphere, full of darkness, which fits perfectly with the nature of the lycanthrope, which shows a careful makeup, while walking the mountains murdered people.
The film contains a bit of gore, castles, many deaths, nudes and maintains a good rhythm during its rather short duration.
A good Spanish horror movie, showing that Spain did not have much to envy to other international productions, and that here you could also make quality films.
Recommendable.
