Los Ojos Azules de la Muneca Rota

Los Ojos Azules de la Muñeca Rota (The Blue Eyes Of The Broken Doll) is a 1973 Spanish horror-giallo film directed by Carlos Aured and starring Paul Naschy (who also wrote the film), Diana Lorys, Maria Perschy, and Eva Leon. The film was shown theatrically in Spain in August 1974 as Los Ojos Azules de la Muñeca Rota. It was released theatrically in the U.S. and on VHS Home Video as The House Of Psychotic Women (slightly edited), and was shown on U.S. late-night television as House of Doom (in an even more edited version). The film was shown in Belgium as Mystery of the Blue Eyes. Most prints are missing a brief scene where a pig is slaughtered on a farm. Today the film is readily available complete and unedited on DVD as The Blue Eyes of the Broken Doll.

While not prosecuted for obscenity, the film was seized and confiscated in raids in the UK under Section 3 of the Obscene Publications Act 1959 during the video nasty panic, probably due to the lurid video box art.[1] Strangely, although this was Naschy's take on the Italian giallo genre, the film does not appear to have been theatrically distributed at all in Italy, France or Germany.
