Kristye") Italian horror thriller ("Born murdered! Prey to the creatures from the grave... creatures who kill again, again, and again") starring Annie Alberti (billed as "Annie Albert"), Adriano Micantoni (billed as "Thony Maky"), Marco Mariani (billed as "Mark Marian"), Flora Carosello (billed as "Elizabeth Queen"), Bernared Blay, Antonio Boccaci, and Emy Eco. It was not uncommon for actors with foreign sounding names to be billed with American sounding names, in order to try to trick the American audiences for the movie into thinking they are going to see an American movie made in English, rather than a non-U.S. movie poorly dubbed in English! This explains why all of the actors' and the director's name from this Italian movie were changed for the U.S. advertising paper. Important Added Info: Note that only 4 lobby cards were produced for this movie, and this is the complete set. It was quite common for studios to only make sets of four for short subjects or low budget movies (or re-releases of big budget movies), because it allowed them to print the sets at half the cost, and on shorts and low budget movies, they tried to save money any way they could (especially since it is likely few theaters even bothered to order lobby cards for these titles, since they were likely shown in addition to a better movie). Condition: very good. Note that these lobby cards have no tape whatsoever on the front or back, and they have never had any restoration of any kind! Learn More about condition grades
