I recommend the late 60's/early 70's BLOOD ISLAND movies box set (known as the "BLOOD ISLAND VACATION" box set). You get three movies starring John Ashley and produced by Eddie Romero, one of the great geniuses of Filipino filmmaking. And a fourth film by Al Adamson which has nothing to do with the other three, really, except that it has the word "Blood" in the title, and that supposedly it was made to "resemble" one of Romero's movies.

Eddie: The OTHER Romero.

Personally, I think these films are the cat's pajamas. Yes, I know that's an antiquated expression. But I don't care.

Oh, and for that posted who mentioned "Horror Express"--that film is one of my absolute favorite horror movies of all time! No really! It's so much fun, I can hardly believe it. Even a scratchy old yucky public domain version is okay, not the best, but okay.

In my opinion, It the best of the set. I loved it! Although the Blob was also pretty awesome.....Teenage Zombies was good for a whole other reason, lol....

The part with the eye was pretty messed tho

Some of those aren't worth the £5
