One of the great horror anthology films of all time, and Mario Bava’s personal favorite of his works, Black Sabbath solidified the director’s reputation as Europe’s maestro of the macabre. In The Telephone…a woman is haunted by menacing phone calls from a former lover. The Wurdalak stars Boris Karloff as a vampire hunter whose family is stalked by the wandering spirit of an undead ghoul. The Drop of Water involves a nurse who steals a ring from a corpse—not realizing the curse that is carried with it.

This is the original/standard version of this film.

Most of you don't have to download every upload. It's hard to say what's the best version to watch for everyone but the standard version will always be uploaded first and it will include a commentary track by Tim Lucas. The standard versions have better video and audio quality. All the other versions are there for archivists and Bava enthusiasts or if you really want to watch a specific language dub.
