THE MYSTERY OF MONSTER ISLAND

a.k.a Misterio en la Isla de los Monstruous (original title); Monster Island (international); Jules Verne's 'Mystery on Monster Island' (USA)

Spain, 1981

Starring Terence Stamp, Peter Cushing, Blanca Estrada, Frank Braña, Paul Naschy & Gérard Tichy

Directed by Juan Piquer Simón

CBS Fox (UK); Fullscreen; English language

I like J. P Simón's many Jules Verne-inspired movies, but this is the weakest of the bunch. Paul Naschy's character dies a humiliating death only five minutes into the film.
