Isle of the Dead
★ 6.0/10•1945•1h 12m•Horror

A grave's dank darkness smothers the screams of a girl still alive!

On a Greek island during the 1912 war, several people are trapped by quarantine for the plague. If that isn't enough worry, one of the people—a superstitious old peasant—suspects a young woman of being a vampiric demon.
