Trivia
Although filmed in spanish, the native language of most of the cast (Evelyn Stewart and Franco Fantasia shot in italian), the movie was completely dubbed and only main star, Analía Gadé, and Eduardo Fajardo kept their original voices, dubbing themselves.

Goofs
"All the bullets were blanks except the last one." Which is weird because earlier in the film when Porter (actually dead) was shooting at the couple in the cemetery, there were ricochet sounds.

Alternate versions
The Avco Embassy prints used for television, and ultimately the U.S. DVD package, are edited to remove scenes of nudity.

print hacked to death

Watched this film titled as Murder Mansion on sub-cheapo Brentwood DVD set called Hell In the Family. Must originally have been from a TV print, because there is no nudity and almost no violence to speak of. Most annoying are the choppy jumps in the film where the violence and nudity belong.

Pity, because the filming of "Mansion of the Fog/Cloud" is really top notch. Fantastic saturated colors ala Mario Bava. Great sets. Decent budget. Decent acting. Great looking damsels in distress. But that is about it.

Too much of the film is missing for the movie to flow well. Too many plot holes. Too many scenes that are suddenly cut.

On the plus side though, Murder Mansion is still a very nice looking movie - lots of atmosphere, and still fairly interesting despite the chopped scenes. Buying the Brentwood DVD set costs less than renting. Bonus in the set is another weird Spanish film - A Veil for the Devil - which is presented as It Happened At Nightmare Inn - also missing the violence and nudity, but still pretty creepy. Both films would be good little cult flicks if someone could scare up intact prints.
