This film is a followup to "Mad Doctor of Blood Island" and once again stars John Ashley. The film begins with Ashley returning to Blood Island and he soon learns that despite the evil Doctor and his monster being killed in the last film, they miraculously have returned. It's full of a lot of the usual stuff--with lots of violence and blood (the violence appears fake by today's standards but was pretty gory stuff for 1971), some boobs, operating on pig (or something) for no particular reason except to show gross stuff, a monster that did look pretty good initially--though later it was a disembodied head which looked VERY silly--especially when it talked much like in "They Saved Hitler's Brain". Soon a gorgeous young woman reporter (Celeste Yarnall) is kidnapped and Ashley and his friends go in search of her. However, it takes a VERY long time to catch up to her and the evil Doctor. It's actually a bit boring during this portion--except when they tossed in some boobs for no reason. And, in the end, the Doctor is killed by his monster--who by now is a head totally separated from its body. How it was able to control the body to kill the Doc is beyond me.
Overall, while this is NOT a good movie and is poorly paced, it's a bit better than some of the other Eddie Romero films shot in the Philippines--though this isn't saying much! A silly film in most every way.
By the way, Eddie Garcia who played the evil Doc has over 500 credits to his name and is a god, of sorts, in Filipino films.
