Default The BLIND DEAD series Amando de Ossorio 1972-1975

What,in your opinion is the best of De Ossorio's BLIND DEAD films?Why is it your favourite?
What memories do you have of first seeing it?

My favourite has to be RETURN OF THE BLIND DEAD,a (very slight) improvement (if that were possible) over the original.
Although the GHOST GALLEON oozes the most atmosphere in the series,the plotting runs at a snail's pace.
NIGHT OF THE SEAGULLS was a vast improvement and a fitting end to the series.
I first saw TOMBS and RETURN on the old cut Redemption videos.
I was well pleased when ABUS brought out that double bill DVD uncut.
The first time I saw Galleon was when I stupidly dived in head first and bought a German only audio/no English subs DVD.
I finally had the pleasure of viewing NIGHT when BU released their coffin boxset,surely the definitive versions of these classic movies.
