Torture Chamber of Dr. Sadism (1967)

Christopher Lee is Count Regula, who is drawn and quartered while wearing a huge gold mask which would be so heavy it would make his head go clunk along the ground.

Thirty five years later, Roger and Lilian, who look just like the people who convicted Regula, are heading to the castle after receiving an invitation regarding an inheritance.

The coachman tells them they need to get out of the forest before dark.  But our intrepid travelers force him to continue, although they should be alarmed due to the human limbs hanging from the tree branches.

There is endless traveling with music right out of a 1960s light comedy, which is totally inappropriate.  Once at the castle, they wander about endlessly before anything happens.

This movie is similar to Bloody Pit of Horror and makes about as much sense.  It's got a 1960s Hammer film pace.
