When a travelling troupe of performers accept a commission from the mysterious Count Drago (Christopher Lee) and fail to heed the warnings of a local witch (Donald Sutherland), they find themselves trapped in the CASTLE OF THE LIVING DEAD. Terror ensues as they are picked off one-by-one as the Count enacts a diabolical scheme: the perversion of science to achieve immortality. A grim dwarf hero battles the Count's scythe-wielding henchman; a surreal secret museum of the Count's victims (whose number includes British horror filmmaker Michael Reeves) and the arresting Italian baroque setting all make for a uniquely cult film experience. 　　译文(2): 当一队巡回演出的演员接受了神秘的德拉戈伯爵(克里斯托弗 · 李)的委托，却没有听从当地女巫(唐纳德·萨瑟兰)的警告，他们发现自己被困在了活死人城堡里。恐怖随之而来，当他们被一个接一个地干掉时，伯爵制定了一个邪恶的计划: 歪曲科学以获得永生。一个冷酷的矮人英雄与伯爵手持镰刀的心腹战斗; 一个伯爵受害者的超现实主义秘密博物馆(其中包括英国恐怖电影制片人迈克尔 · 里夫斯)和引人注目的意大利巴洛克风格的场景，这一切都为一个独特的邪教电影体验创造了条件。
