Black Sabbath is a 1963 Italian horror film directed by Mario Bava. Boris Karloff, in addition to appearing in the linking passages, has a role in “The Wurdalak” segment (based on a story by Aleksey Konstantinovich Tolstoy). The film comprises three horror stories, the others being “The Drop of Water” and “The Telephone.” “The Drop of Water” is decidedly the best segment of the three as I actually found it entirely creepy. Unfortunately they run through the stories in order of most effective to least and Boris Karloff’s segment is entirely too slow and predictable given all the introduction before hand. I recommend this just for the first segment but beyond that, it’s hard to.
