The Brides of Blood Island (released internationally as Brides of Blood, as well as Brides of the Beast, Danger on Tiki Island and Grave Desires)[1][2][3] is a 1966[4] Filipino horror film directed by Eddie Romero and Gerardo de Leon from a screenplay by Cesar J. Amigo, and starring John Ashley, Kent Taylor, Beverly Hills, Eva Darren and Mario Montenegro.[5] It was the first movie that Ashley made in the Philippines, beginning a long association between Ashley and that country.[6] The Brides of Blood Island was the second in a series of four horror films produced by Romero and Kane W. Lynn known as the "Blood Island" series, which also included Terror Is a Man, The Mad Doctor of Blood Island and Beast of Blood.[7] Brides of Blood was later released to television syndication in some areas as Island of Living Horror.[5]
Manila has recently mounted a Philippine Film Festival to promote the offerings of the local cinema industry. Some sample titles: Seksi Komandos, The Brides of Blood Island (advertised with a picture of a crucified naked girl), and Napoleon Doble and the Sexy Six.
