Question: Which film has the director born earlier, As Long As They'Re Happy or La Noche De Walpurgis?

Year as Long as Life is a 1966 Soviet drama film directed by Grigori Roshal. <SEP> This film was directed by León Klimovsky and written by Naschy, and is generally regarded to have kickstarted the Spanish horror film boom of the Seventies, due to its awesome box office success upon its release. La Noche de Walpurgis( Walpurgis Night, released in the United States as The Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman, in the UK as Shadow of the Werewolf[ theatrical] and as Werewolf Shadow[ dvd]), is a 1970 Spanish horror film starring Paul Naschy, the fifth in a series about the werewolf Waldemar Daninsky. The German distributors added the name Hans Munkel to the screenwriting credit in some versions to satisfy the terms of international co-production. Patty Shepard was so convincing as the vampiric Countess, it was thought at the time that she might replace actress Barbara Steele as Europe's reigning horror queen. Klimovsky filmed many of the scenes in slow motion, to add to the otherworldliness of the film .< br> Note*- There is a scene in this film that obviously inspired Spanish director Amando de Ossorio to write" Tombs of the Blind Dead", which was made just a few months later in 1971. A skeletal zombie in a monk's garments assaults Naschy in a cemetery in one scene, bearing a strong resemblance to de Ossorio's Templar Knights in his" Blind Dead" films. Naschy followed up this film with a sequel entitled" Dr. Jekyll y el Hombre Lobo" .< br> <SEP> As Long as They're Happy is a 1955 British musical comedy film directed by J.

Horror film fans best remember him for his contributions to Spain's horror film genre, beginning with" La Noche de WalpurgisWalpurgis Night"), the film that is said to have started the Spanish horror film boom of the 1970s. León Klimovsky( 16 October 1906 – 8 April 1996) was an Argentine film director, screenwriter and film producer. Klimovsky directed famed Spanish horror icon Paul Naschy in no less than 9 films in the 1970s, while also directing other classic horror films such as" The Strange Love of the Vampires The Dracula Saga" and" The Vampires' Night Orgy". Naschy complimented Klimovsky's workmanlike attitude and abundant energy, but he always felt that Klimovsky rushed through many of their projects together, never allowing for sufficient retakes. León Klimovsky always dreamt of doing great mainstream movies but ended up doing commercial exploitation films, but he had no remorse, as cinema was a vocational mandate for him. He retired from directing in 1979, at age 73. In 1995, at age 89, he won the" Honor Award" from the Spanish Film Directors Association. He died the following year in Madrid from a heart attack.
