It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

This is the third film in the "Blood Collection" series and it takes up where the last movie, "Mad Doctor of Blood Island" left off. As everyone knows from the last exciting movie, "Dr. Bill Foster" (John Ashley) and "Sheila Willard" (Angelique Pettyjohn) managed to survive the explosion at the lab of "Dr. Lorca" (played by Ronald Remy) and were last seen on a ship heading away from Blood Island. However, one of the green creatures had managed to smuggle himself aboard just as the film ended. Sure enough, he comes out of hiding right as this film starts and causes the ship to explode killing everyone on board except for Dr. Foster and the green creature—who is seen slinking into the jungle as the opening credits appear on the screen. We then learn that Dr. Foster was rescued by a native woman named "Laida" (Liza Belmonte) and was sent to a hospital on the mainland. Months later he decides to return to Blood Island and is followed by an attractive journalist named "Myra J. Russell" (Celeste Yarnall) who wants the inside scoop on what happened. Now, although this movie doesn't quite have as much eroticism as its two predecessors, it does have some decent jungle combat scenes if that's any consolation. Likewise, Celeste Yarnall filled in quite well as the mandatory damsel in distress. All in all then, I rate this movie about the same as the last two films and recommend that it be seen after "Mad Doctor of Blood Island" if for no other reason than to obtain some kind of continuity. Slightly below average.

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.

The sequel to Mad Doctor of Blood Island, the last in the Blood Island Trilogy, a Philippine film that features sex and violence just for the heck of it.Plot? You need a stinking plot? OK, Dr. Foster (John Ashley) is back on Blood Island in search of the green monster. Dr Lorca (Eddie Garcia) is trying to replace the monster's head. That's it. The rest is lots of fighting and bloody bodies, and sex with a reporter (Celeste Yarnall) and native (Liza Belmonte).It was extremely difficult just to stay focused on this. Please, no Blood Island IV!

Actually, BOB is considerably better than the first film, MDof BloodIsle. I believe BOB could well stand alone without the first if need be. The use of cameras and lighting are improved, as well as the acting, with the exception of that boat captain! I rather like the jungle adventure that makes up most of ActII, but given a choice, I would like to have seen more scenes of the monster. As a fan of the genre, must say it's not a bad little film all considered...
