Virginia White (Helen Harp) sees her former roommate of the boarding school Betty Turner (Lone Fleming) in the swimming pool of a hotel in Lisbon, and introduces Betty to her friend Roger Whelan (Cesar Burner). He invites Betty to travel with them to a small town during the weekend. Betty comes alone to meet Virginia and Roger in the train station and when Virginia sees that Betty and Roger are together, she becomes upset. Virginia sees a village and decides to jump off the train. She walks to the place and discovers that it is an abandoned ruin of a medieval village. Virginia decides to camp in the spot and during the night, she is hunted down by undead that have risen from their tombs riding horses. On the next morning, Roger and Betty decide to seek out Virginia in Berzano and the borrow horses in the hotel they are lodged and ride to the village. They meet the police inspectors Marcos and Oliveira that tell Roger and Betty that Virginia was murdered. They decide to investigate the death of their friend and they visit Professor Candal (Francisco Sanz) in the National Ministry of Education that tells the story of the evil Templar Knights. They visit the scum Pedro Candal (Joseph Thelman) that together with his girlfriend, travel with Roger and Betty to Berzano to spend the night in the ancient village.
"La Noche del Terror Ciego", a.k.a. "Tombs of the Blind Dead" is an overrated and lame Spanish-Portuguese production. The story and the screenplay are ridiculous and with many flaws, awful characters development and terrible acting. Virginia, for example, prefers to jump off the train in the morning in the middle of nowhere to get rid of Betty, who was invited by her in the hotel to join Roger and her, instead of spending the weekend in a hotel. Then she decides to camp in a lonely creepy place and as soon as she arrives in the ruins, it is almost night. Why Roger and Betty decide to spend the night in a place where their friend was murdered? Why did they invite Pedro to come with them? The conclusion with the operator stopping the train and unable to bring Betty quickly to the locomotive is dreadful. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): Not Available
