I think it's a superb film, though possibly a little inpenetrable at first - the "who's doing what to whom" aspect of the plot take a bit of sinking in! - I certainly needed a second viewing of Blood Bath (as my first copy was titled) before things began to fall into place.
The opening murder sequence is as good as anything Bava ever filmed in his career IMO.
I still haven't watched the version in Bava Box 2. Maybe I will do so today!
