In Island Monster

Island Monster - The most beautiful scenes shot in Ischia 

Many of these films use the island only as a location, as in the case of the film shot in '45, just after the Second World War, "Island Monster" of 1953, directed Roberto Bianco Montero, in which the horror arises by subtraction rather than visionary power, as in the character of this film, sublimated in the collective icon stout and staggering, with his face sewn up, the monster of Frankenstein.
