Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The Sound of Horror is a mid-60s Spanish horror film set in Greece. Some men are looking for buried treasure after obtaining both halves of a secret treasure map which leads them to an old cave. After blowing up portions of the cave, they discover a mummy, a skeleton, and some semi-petrified dinosaur eggs. One of the eggs hatches to produce a transparent dinosaur-like monster which terrorizes the men and the ladies. Not content to stay in its cave, the monster roams around and attacks the cabin where the people are staying.The suspense factor is actually not bad, I'll give the suspense factor a six. The special effects are awful though. There are a couple of brief flashes of the monster (it looks like a plastic Godzilla model picked up at a discount toy store) and stop-motion effects to show the footprints of the monster walking through the flour. Finally, the monster shrieks sound like a person going "AAAAAHEEEAAAAAHH" and nothing more. Anyway the monster gets one star.The stunningly beautiful Soledad Miranda, however, gets a solid eight just for the Greek dancing and standing around looking so pretty. Overall, not bad, I give it a four.

Professor Andre and a bunch of friends are searching a cave for a treasure from the days of Ancient Greece. What they find is much older than even that: a prehistoric monster, invisible (!) but stalking them day and night, uttering a horrible scream (see movie title). Everybody in this movie is heroic (although one coward type is what you'd expect for the genre), so the rest is almost a competition who can sacrifice himself first for the escape of the others.Even if it began a bit silly - I mean, the actors stand 5 meters away from the dynamite explosion and don't bother to take cover - it got better and better! The invisible enemy is quite effective, and the movie is old-fashioned in a positive sense, more like a horror classic from the 1930s than the 1960s. Good cast including the one and only Soledad Miranda, Ingrid Pitt of Hammer fame, plus experienced character actors such as Jose Bodalo ("Django") and Antonio Casas ("A Gun For Ringo").

Sound of Horror (1961) ** (out of 4) A group seeking a buried treasure accidentally cracks open a prehistoric egg, which lets loose an invisible dinosaur like creature. Pretty soon the humans are trying to survive yet they can't run away because they have no idea where the creature is. Many low budget movies are beaten to death by critics because of how "fake" the monsters look so with that in mind this film is actually pretty smart. Instead of turning in a bad looking monster we just don't get a monster at all. The idea of an invisible monster is actually a very good one but sadly the film goes on too long, which eventually makes it boring. Had the movie ran seventy-five minutes or less then this would have been a cult classic but the extra running time just makes it rather hard to sit through. The film is best remembered for featuring a young Ingrid Pitt and Soledad Miranda, two actresses who would become known for their work with Hammer and Jess Franco.

Sound of Horror was a very pleasant surprise. I bought it as part of Mill Creek Entertainment's Tales of Terror boxed set, and was expected a bad seventies flick along the lines of the Legend of Bigfoot. Instead, I get what has to be one of the better Spanish sci-fi/horror flicks that I've ever seen.True, the fact that the monster is an invisible dinosaur is, to say the least, somewhat lame. But it is carried off fairly well here, as there is a lot of suspense maintained in the film when it really counts. There are few real special effects, with only about three actual optical process shots. The cast is excellent, though the characterizations are pretty stereotypical for the time period.I think that Sound of Horror most reminded me of a Mexican horror movie from the sixties ... but a good one without the expository narration to explain what's happened in the last three films. I enjoyed this movie, and would recommend any genre fans to give it a look.
