About This Film

Legend of Horror (1972) is an unusual low-budget horror film that patches together American footage with a Spanish-language segment based on Edgar Allan Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart. Directed by Bill Davies and Enrique Carreras, the patchwork oddity has gained a cult following for its chintz-goth feel and surreal narrative structure.
