A poor excuse to watch some strippers
28 March 2004 | by ChuckStraub – See all my reviews

This movie has a werewolf, a mummy, walking dead, ghouls, a zombie, the princess of darkness, and an emperor of the dead. Most of the movie takes place in a cemetery. Even with all this, you’ll never believe it, but this is not a horror movie. What little there is of acting, is so poor it’s a joke. The filming is terrible. Forget about a plot and trying to find out where the movie is heading. It isn’t heading anywhere. Don’t expect to watch an actual horror movie. The main point of this movie is to show about 10, attractive, topless women doing individual exotic dances. The dancers are attractive, and for 1965 exotic dancing I would have to say they are pretty good. The main problem is, that’s it. That’s all there is to it. There is no more. Watch this only if you want a poor excuse to watch some strippers dancing.

Orgy of the Dead is a 1965 erotic horror film directed by Stephen C. Apostolof (under the alias A. C. Stephen). The screenplay was written by cult film director Edward D. Wood Jr., who adapted the screenplay into a novel.

Production and casting

The film’s graveyard prologue is a recreation of the opening scene from Ed Wood’s then-unreleased 1958 film Night of the Ghouls. Criswell reprises his role from the earlier film. The action begins when a young couple, Bob (William Bates) and Shirley (sexploitation actress Pat Barrington, billed as Pat Barringer) survive a car crash only to find themselves tied to posts in a misty cemetery where they are forced to watch dead spirits dance for the Emperor of the Night played by Criswell (best known for Plan 9 from Outer Space). Ten striptease performances by topless dancers from beyond the grave outfitted in various motifs comprise most of this movie. The Wolf Man (wearing a very obvious mask) and the Mummy are also tossed in for comic relief. Barrington doubles as the blond Golden Girl (inspired by Shirley Eaton in Goldfinger)[1] while her red-headed “Shirley” character watches her perform. Criswell’s undead consort, the sexy Black Ghoul, was written for Maila Nurmi, a.k.a. Vampira, but was instead played by Fawn Silver, who wore a black bouffant wig.

Wood served as writer, production manager, casting agent, and even held up cue cards on this low-budget film, although he did not direct. An article on the making of this film was published in Femme Fatales, 7:1 (June 1998).

The Black Ghoul appears to have “pasty white skin”, with red fingernails and lipstick. She wears a black dress, implying the role of a funerary garment. Black, red, and white are the main colors associated with her.[1]
