Re: More Directors' Checklists - The Films of FERNANDO MENDEZ

In order of merit:


1.THE BLACK PIT OF DR. M (1958) ***
2.THE VAMPIRE (1957) ***
3.THE VAMPIRE'S COFFIN (1957) **1/2



The first is undoubtedly the best Mexi-Horror film I've watched so far and the second was my introduction to the genre a few years back. On the strength of these, I'll be adding THE LIVING COFFIN (1959) to my DVD collection when it is released in late 2007.
