It's indeed a funny one. It was primarily shot in Spanish language in Mexico in '69, however Karloff was suffering from pneumonia so his scenes (of which there are very few) were shot in Hollywood. The film was later re-dubbed and sold to TV in the US being re-titled
Isle of the Snake People (or even just
Snake People to some audiences) - the original Spanish language title is
La muerte viviente. It was mostly directed by Juan Ibáñez but was also overseen by Jack Hill who co-wrote the screenplay. I don't think the original Spanish version was ever seen outside of South America.
