INVASION SINIESTRA and LA CAMARA DEL TERROR are two of the four U.S./Mexico co-productions that Boris Karloff starred in for producer Luis Enrique Vergara of Azteca Films. The scenes with Karloff were shot in Los Angeles by director Jack Hill sometime in 1968, and the rest of the movies were completed in Mexico by Juan Ibáñez. These schlocky south-of-the-border horrors marked the elderly star's final film appearances, and they didn't appear on the Spanish-language theater circuit until a year or two after his death.
Did Columbia handle the American TV release of the English language versions? Whatever the case, they seem to be in the public domain.
