Except from the scenarios, specially on "The Wurdalak", the first two tales haven't done much for me... very obvious, no help from the acting nor the dubbing... as for "The Drop of Water", it sure keeps up with the "best for last" saying.

I was hoping for the second one to be better (hey! Vampires!), but the last one surprised me enough to save the whole experience. I'll definitely check some other Mario Bava's out.

Very charming horror anthology, presented by Boris Karloff. All shot in beatiful sets, this is a nice addition if you like classic horror. The hilarious ending is out of place and makes it very funny..

Yeah, the last part is creepy but not THAT creepy in my opinion. Oh, and I did mostly watch this because of the title.

A well put together horror anthology which consists of spooky and dread-inducing tales, with charming intro & outro by Boris Karloff, evocative camerawork and atmosphere that Bava is known for. The film starts strong with its first segment, _The Telephone_, which feels contemporary than the rest but totally nails the suspense and fully utilize Bava's masterful giallo work. It's fairly simple but gripping throught. The middle segment, _The Wurdalak_ fills the most runtime. I'd say it's an interesting folky vampire story though unfortunately not as hypnotic as I was expecting and somewhat wears out its welcome by the end. The last segment, _The Drop of Water_ is without a doubt a standout. It's a genuinely unsettling ghost story with a bit of psychological horror. In all the segments, Bava with his wide array of talents within the genre, ensures that this is a treat from start to finish.
