Tombs of the Blind Dead

During a vacation, Virginia reconnects with her former lover Betty while Roger Whelan invites Betty to join a train journey. The prospect rekindles past tensions, and Virginia becomes increasingly jealous of their closeness. Her emotions foreshadow the deadly events to come.

On the train journey that Roger arranges, Virginia's jealousy peaks as she realizes Betty and Roger's relationship. In a moment of anger, she leaps from the moving train and disappears into the countryside. The abrupt departure sets off a remote pursuit that leads her to Berzano.

Wandering after leaving the train, Virginia discovers the abandoned medieval town of Berzano at the Spain-Portugal border. She decides to camp near the ruins for the night, unaware of the legends that haunt the place. The silence of Berzano becomes the stage for the night's horror.

From their silent tombs, the revenant knights emerge during the night and close in on Virginia. The undead are blind, driven by hunger, and attack her with brutal force, biting and ripping at her flesh. The legend becomes brutally real as her screams echo through Berzano.

Following the night's horror, a train conductor returning along the line finds Virginia's corpse in a field near Berzano. The grisly discovery confirms local legends about the revenants and jolts the investigation underway by Betty and Roger.

Betty and Roger retrace Virginia's steps, seeking clues about her fate. They encounter locals who recount the Berzano legend of revenants, and two police investigators explain what happened to Virginia. The seeds of the investigation are planted, guiding them toward uncovering the truth.

In Betty's lab near the morgue, Virginia's corpse returns to life, killing a custodian with brute force before fleeing to the mannequin factory. Betty's assistant manages to stop the revenant by destroying it with fire, ending the immediate threat in the lab environment. The threat persists beyond the lab as the legend grows more real.

Professor Pedro Candal indirectly directs the investigators to his son Pedro, a small-time smuggler near Berzano and a prime suspect in Virginia's death. The professor's involvement ties the locals' fear to a potentially rational explanation, pushing Betty and Roger to investigate Pedro's involvement. The search expands beyond Berzano as they prepare for a confrontation.

Betty and Roger locate Pedro and his lover Maria and convince them to help prove that the knights are real. With this new alliance, they return to Berzano to confront the undead knights and resolve the mystery surrounding Virginia's fate. The plan hinges on gathering evidence and surviving the encounter.

Upon their arrival, the group is confronted by the knights, who kill Roger, Pedro, and Maria in a brutal confrontation. Betty barely escapes, triggering a desperate flight from Berzano as the undead knights close in. The deaths dramatically shift the stakes for Betty's survival.

Betty flees Berzano, boarding a passing train and hiding in a coal cargo to evade the pursuing knights. The chase shifts from the ruins to the moving train, turning the vessel into another deadly battleground. Her survival now depends on slipping through the next escape attempt.

The knights seize control of the train, killing the conductor and cannibalizing passengers in a terrifying rampage. Betty's danger increases as she remains on board, hunted by revenants and facing an unspeakable fate in the confined carriage. The tragedy intensifies the horror of the legend becoming reality at train speed.

The train arrives at the station and Betty is found speechless, confronted by the carnage and the undead knights' trail. A station attendant and other passengers react with horror at the sight inside the train. The final image is one of shock as the legend closes in on civilization.
