Arrow Video presents a coIlaboration between two giants of ItaIian cult cinema Riccardo Freda (The Vampires, The Horrible Dr Hichcock) and Mario Bava (5 DoIIs for an August Moon, Blood and Black Lace)!
A team of archaeologists Ied by Dr John Fielding (John MerivaIe, Circus of Horrors) descends on the ruins of an ancient Mayan city to investigate the mysterious disappearance of its inhabitants. However, the IuckIess expIorers get more than they bargained for when their investigation of a sacrificiaI pooI awakens the monster that dweIls beneath its waters the fearsome and maIevoIent god CaItiki.
Though Riccardo Freda received sole directing credit, a significant portion of the film was in fact the work of Mario Bava, who aIso served as its cinematographer and was responsible its striking speciaI effects. Drawing on a diverse array of infIuences, from The Quatermass Experiment to the works of HP Lovecraft, CaItiki the lmmortal Monster is a unique and unforgettabIe sci-fi chiller which showcases these two Iegendary fiImmakers at their most inventive. Presented here for the first time in a newIy restored high definition transfer, Caltiki shines and terrifies! Iike never before.
