This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

What a way to end a series! This entry is a few notches above the previous film and perhaps just a hair lesser horror than the first 2 movies and overall it's European horror in it's purest form. This film is a bit more surreal and dreamlike than the other Blind Dead films and I'd probably also call it the scariest of the series. Another plus is it kind of plays out like Night Of The Living Dead combined with Straw Dogs. Of course I'm not comparing this film to either of those masterpieces, but what great templates to use.The plot of unwanted visitors to a cursed village might feel familiar to fans of Italian or Spanish horror. While in today's cinema they'd probably CGI a creepy, coastal village but of course nothing beats the real thing. You could probably look into where the movie was actually filmed, but I prefer to think it just exists in a dream (or nightmare if you prefer). When you watch this movie you'll understand what I mean. This locale, combined with some of cinema's best looking zombies, along with the requisite hints of blood and nudity will make any horror fan want to watch. The film starts strong and then slows up a bit in the middle to build tension. The zombies look so good and are so creepy that you'll wish they were on screen more. Never fear because the final 35 minutes are dedicated to our Blind Dead "heroes" and their siege on the doctor's house. Will mankind triumph over the evil zombie hoard in this final chapter or are we all doomed? You'll have to watch the movie to find out.

The last of the Blind Dead films features an absence of the scares the first two provided, but makes up for this with atmosphere by the bucketful. It is creepy as all hell, and dreamlike. A great many Euro- horror films are called such, but this is generally just a polite way of saying they are languid, boring or make no sense - see films from Fulci's mid-career, and some of Jean Rollin's early work for examples of this. Such is not the case with "Night of the Seagulls".In this Blind Dead offering, a seaside township has struck a bargain of sorts with the sightless spectres that prey on them: they will leave an offering of a young virgin girl (who else?) whenever the Blind Dead leave their tombs. This nefarious arrangement is threatened by the arrival of a doctor and his young wife, who immediately find the township strange and threatening. Only an "idiot", the village fool, reminiscent of the monobrow-having man in Return of the Evil Dead, is willing to help them.The last Blind Dead film opens with a shockingly violent scene as a girl's still beating heart is ripped from her chest. There is little violence afterwards however. There are some glimpses of bare breasts also, but nothing compared to the generally sleazy nature of Spanish horror ala Naschy and Franco.Overall, fans of atmospheric horror owe it to themselves to check this movie out.

A doctor and his wife open his practice in a traditional coastal town, where they are met with distrust and hatred from the locals. The couple soon find out that town harbours an ancient evil - offering resident women for sacrifice to the zombie dead Knights Templar then to be eaten by crabs.Although only connected by the Knights returning to life Night of the Seagulls (La Noche de las gaviotas) is the fourth and final zombie Templar film from Director /Writer Amando De Ossorio. Although it takes about 20 minutes for the Knights to rise from their graves in the seaside town, Night of the Seagulls is the faster paced of the bunch. This borrows from H. P Lovecraft, clearly Dagon has influenced this instalment.There's more fog, more eerie music and the dreamlike visuals come thick and fast, odd townsfolk, zombie knights on horseback and screaming seagulls. There are fewer leads, the couple and the village girl are adequate enough and there are plenty of worn and old faces on display, Amando De Ossorio throws in the obligatory slow 'village idiot' that is hounded by the community.Debatably I maybe being to critical here but as a standalone film it works better if you haven't seen the other Blind Dead films, but for those familiar with them it's old trodden ground, a remake of a remake, that's it hard to enjoy fully without fresh eyes.The dubbing and seventies jumpers aside this last Blind Dead retains it's creepy atmospheric factor and trades the better sets for some character development. Technically it's put together well but the closing act with a siege on the a house has been done and despite some good makeup effects is somewhat anti-climatic. That said, it redeems itself with the church showdown and conclusion.All in all a mix bag of enjoyable bones.

I feel that out of all the sequels, this is actually the one that stays the closest to the original. Not that that necessarily is a good thing though, since the first movie was far from a perfect or thrilling one but it nevertheless is an enjoyable series, mainly thanks to its great concept and thank goodness that this movie is not as bad and disappointing as the previous entry; "El buque maldito".Guess that entire series is one that tries to be different with its approach. Instead of focusing just on its gore and violence, the movies are more about its atmosphere and buildup. It results in the fact that all movies out of the series are kind of slow ones and a bit of a lackluster as well. Nevertheless the entire series is made great thanks to the awesome blind Templar knights, who kill their way through these movies.But perhaps it's also simply due to the fact that these movies are Spanish productions and obviously not made for a lot of money, which is the reason that the movies are a bit different from, lets say, the Italian sort of productions, from the same time period.The fact that this movie is so slow is definitely a thing that will put off some people. It also really makes this movie and just the entire series in general, a bit of a waste of such a fine concept and great potential. You can say that the blind Templar knights and their slow-motion running horses get too little to do in this movie unfortunately and they do not get featured enough in it, at least not till the last halve hour or so. But luckily they are much better looking again when compared to the last movie. In "El buque maldito" they looked horribly cheap but it seems that for this movie they got to spend some more money again on their looks. Perhaps this is due that this movie got shot at location again, unlike "El buque maldito", which required some more set and set-dressing, since the movie for most part got based aboard a ghost ship.But once the movie picks on some pace and the blind Templar knights are doing their thing, this is simply one great movie to watch. And there still isn't anything more awesome than watching those zombie-like creatures riding their horses in slow-motion, toward their next victim.All in all it's a worthy last movie within the series, even though the movie offers little new or originality once you've seen any of the previous movies out of the Amando de Ossorio directed series.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
